The committee meets frequently to help plan and implement programs for the student body at PSC, and to provide resources to students via health fairs, or on-site information sessions.
In order to better educate students on what is expected of them within and outside the classroom, the College has designed the Student of Code of Conduct Guide (PDF) . Throughout each semester, workshops will be presented regarding behavioral expectations on campus.
Other events sponsored by this office are: Jennifer S. Fallick Walk of Hope in collaboration with Phi Theta Kappa International Honors Society, Relay for Life in collaboration with Phi Theta Kappa International Honors Society and the American Cancer Society, and an annual Health Fair.
