Student Life
Campus life
While learning and studying are important, many college memories are made outside the classroom. Whether it’s winning the big game, learning to live on your own for the first time or joining a campus club with other like-minded individuals, life on campus plays a major role in your overall college experience. At Durham College, we strive to build an inclusive community where everyone feels accepted.
