Our Students
 SCO students actively
participate in the life of the College. Some of the most recognized names in
organized optometry today got their start in an SCO student organization.
The Student Government
Association takes an active role in helping to set the course for the College.
It recommends policies, and its president is an ex-officio member of the Board
of Trustees.
SCO students are active participants in the
American Optometric
Student Association, the student equivalent of the American Optometric
Association.
One of the more popular
student organizations is the Student Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity (SVOSH).
Through SVOSH, about eighty students travel each year to Central America for 10
days to help provide vision care. This challenging, yet rewarding, program is
partially sponsored by the Lions Clubs of America, and students lodge with Lions
Club families.
There are also numerous
organizations to match students with others of similar interests whether they be
religious, humanitarian, or purely social. These include:
- Beta Sigma Kappa
- Gold Key Society
- Student Ambassadors
- Gamma Omicron
- Omega Delta
