The experience of attending WMCC is not limited to the students’ academic life. WMCC’s philosophy is to educate the entire person so each student can adapt to the ever-changing world. The Student Senate serves as the governing group for the student body, with representatives elected from each program. These representatives accept the fulfillment of leadership roles and responsibility working with their peers, faculty, and administration. The Student Senate provides experiences that promote the general welfare of every student, plans social and cultural activities, and manages the expenditure of student funds. Activities include films, lectures, athletics, field days, club membership, and social events.
