Campus Life

At NTC, we believe that a college education is more than what you learn in your classes. Campus activities provide opportunities to develop leadership skills, to cultivate civic responsibility, promote service to society, and facilitate interactions with fellow learners, faculty, and staff outside the classroom setting. If you have an idea for a new organization, we encourage you to contact the Counseling Office.

You may also become connected at Bemidji State University through some of their clubs and organizations.

Please visit http://www.bemidjistate.edu/students/organizations/ or contact Kari Kantack in Admissions at 218.333.6645.

Clubs & Organizations

Campus Government serves to represent the learners enrolled at NTC. Membership is elected from each program area. Officers of the organization are elected by the majority vote of the enrolled learners. Campus Government aids other learner organizations, establishes the protocols for campus sponsored activities, promotes good conduct, and allocates funds for many worthwhile projects.

The Campus Government belongs to the Minnesota State College Student Senate Association. The NTC Campus Government was named the "Student Senate of the Year" by the MSCSSA for the 2004-2005 academic year.  Rick and Gwen Oster are the current advisors for campus government.  You can reach them at 218-333-6641 or 6635.
