Something is always happening at Bryan
Practical Christian Involvement
PCI houses a diverse group of volunteer outreach ministries. The student-led teams are each an innovative way to serve the community around Bryan. One of the most recent additions to the teams is a group that helps coordinate giving blood plasma to support orphans in India. Check out the entire listing of ministry groups.
PCI also includes MLK Community Service Day. Instead of taking a vacation on Martin Luther King Day, the entire Bryan community of students, faculty, and staff, leave the campus for hard work. Leaves are raked; walls painted; anything that Bryan College can do to help the area and people around Bryan College. (MLK Day pictures)
Student Government
Bryan's SGA is a major part of the activities and happenings at Bryan. From banquets to special events like the "Barbarian Wars," they strive to "plan purposeful events." The Student Senate provides a venue for student representation to the college administration.
SGA also manages clubs, small groups promoting a specific interest. These clubs are unique places to get to know others in a context of something specific and special. From coffee and anime to volleyball and bicycle, the clubs are a great place to have fun with others who enjoy your hobby, or to find a new hobby.
