Join a Club. Start a Club.
Outside the classroom, Vaughn students get together, work together and have fun together in our student clubs, professional societies, honor societies and in intercollegiate athletics.
Most meet weekly during what Vaughn calls "common hour": 11 a.m. to noon on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So get involved. Join Vaughn's:

Student Government Association
The Student Government Association (SGA) is the voice of the students and serves the campus community through effective, responsible leadership. Under the purview of the dean of student development and campus life, the association is the liaison between college administration and the student body, working toward the greater good of the campus community and welfare and morale of the students.
The SGA works in conjunction with other student organizations as well as the student affairs staff to coordinate student-sponsored events and programs. All student clubs and organizations operate under the guidance and support of the Student Government Association and abide by its constitution, which promises to represent, advocate and protect the welfare of the student body of the College.
Any student who is currently enrolled, matriculated and in good academic and judicial standing at the College is eligible to become a member of the SGA. The executive board consists of five elected officers: president, vice president, treasurer, secretary and student activities committee chair. Officers are elected every spring in a collegewide election in which all registered students are encouraged to vote. The SGA enables students to enhance their professional skills and become an active participant in the campus community while taking advantage of leadership opportunities that come their way.
The officers for the current year are:
- President – Cesar Revelo (cesar.revelo@vaughn.edu)
- Vice President – Cory Clark (cory.clark@vaughn.edu)
- Treasurer – Nitza Guardado (nitza.guardado@vaughn.edu)
- Student Activities Committee Chair – Francisco Tunas (francisco.tunas@vaughn.edu)
The Student Government Association advisor is Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs Jerima DeWese (jerima.dewese@vaughn.edu).
