Student Activities, Teams & Clubs - Hellenic American College

Student activities, teams and clubs provide students with opportunities to be active citizens in our community and beyond. Comprised of clubs, councils, and sports teams, our offerings are as diverse as our student body. We firmly believe that the process of educating students must extend outside the classroom walls. Our faculty advisors, coaches, and mentors ensure that our students are exposed to well-rounded experiences so that they gain an understanding of different viewpoints, cultures, and opportunities in academic settings and beyond.

Soccer Team

The Soccer Team was the institution’s first varsity sport. Made up of players of different backgrounds and playing styles, the Team plays competitive soccer in the Unileague – a colleges and universities-only league that culminates in a playoff and subsequent championship. The regular season matches occur typically during Winterim. The Soccer Team strives to create a playing environment that's inclusive as well as competitive and to foster strong friendships and team spirit on and off the field. We are proud of the strong precedent that the team has set for the expectations of student-athletes at our institution.

The Student Council (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)

The Student Council is a group of students chosen by their peers to represent and promote their interests in a structured setting. Drawing on input and ideas from the student body, the five-member Council presents its recommendations to the Director of Student Affairs and International Programs, who then conveys these proposals to the appropriate decision-making bodies.

Together with the Director, the members of the Student Council also help organize events, such as student get-togethers, movie nights, city walks, and events for international students. In addition, the Council is responsible for leading initiatives such as blood drives and events to raise awareness of issues such as wellness, sexual health, and substance abuse.

Participation in the Student Council is an excellent way for students to develop their leadership skills and learn how to work more effectively in a team. Elections to the Student Council, for which all students are eligible to be candidates, are held each year.
