about the student advisory board

The student conference is planned by ORCC's Student Advisory Board. The Board is made up of a team of students who have each been nominated by their schools as outstanding leaders. ORCC works to provide them with additional leadership experience to move beyond their campus and make a powerful statewide impact. 

I felt that all the activities were useful. I learned so much this weekend. This conference has been a formative experience for me and will greatly help me in the future. Really a phenomenal program."
