2024 - 25 Annual Report
Student Interest Group Support
OACC recognizes Student Interest Groups ( SIGs ) as vital platforms for professional development , peer connection , and identity exploration . We provide tailored support to SIGs through leadership development , event planning consultation , and opportunities to collaborate on programming . In 2024 – 2025 , OACC supported 11 mission - aligned SIG events that collectively enriched student engagement , advanced education , and expanded opportunities for mentorship and specialty exposure . These events focused on identity - affirming experiences , professional skill - building , and community outreach . In addition to logistical and planning support , OACC introduced a post - event evaluation process to help SIGs reflect on outcomes and improve future programming . These reflections show that thoughtful support of SIG events leads to meaningful , student - driven experiences that advance OACC ’ s mission .
