Students’ extra-curricular activity





The primary reason people go to college is to continue their educations. But what some students don’t realize is that opportunities to learn don’t shut off after the class day is through.

An important part of college life is extra-curricular activities. There are different groups or clubs, where students can succeed in the field they are particularly interested in. Art clubs, Music, Drama and history clubs and groups, studying foreign languages, computer study are among them. Any student can enroll in a beauty contest, such as "Mr. or Ms. of college". Other important activities are sports teams. Most colleges offer a variety of teams for both boys and girls. Football, basketball, volleyball, and tennis are played in the majority of colleges.

Throughout the academic year, students have the opportunity to conduct research work in their chosen field, both academically and experientially. This work is organized and guided by the professional staff of the college. At the end of the program students present their creative works in a form of an essay or a project. The best works are represents in different competitions and the winners are awarded.

Besides, students may participate with their own reports in many conferences that are conducted throughout the year. These reports are published in specialized digests.

Students are also welcome to write interesting and up-to-the-moment articles for the college’s newspaper.

Whether you’re on a sports team, in a dance troupe, or a representative in your student government, you will learn a lot about the activity itself, and more importantly, a lot about yourself. For example, if you love student government, that’s a sign that perhaps, you should really run for office one day. And if you hate it, that’s important information to have before you begin a campaign in the real world and realize it’s a big mistake. You will also learn how to work and interact with other people outside the classroom setting. This skill is a very important. Once you graduate from college, you will need to work with other people, and all of that work will take place outside of the classroom.

 

Additionally, participating in college activities will make you a better student in your coursework. It’s true in at least two ways. First, you will force yourself to be organized about getting your course assignments done. Secondly, taking a break from studying by doing something else will make you more effective in your course work. When you go to do your activity, you are giving yourself a total break from calculus or Shakespeare, so when you go back, you’ll be refreshed. Doing a college activity is better for your brain than taking a break by watching TV for example.
