INTERACT (Students improving the quality of life on Long Island)
The Honors Club, or the Honors Student Organization, is an extension of the Honors Program at Nassau and supplements the Honors experience at the College. Members are welcome to work, study, and network with other Honors students in the Honors Lounge. The organization provides opportunities for members to build resumes, acquire real world skills, find internships, get community service hours, travel to academic conferences, and publish in academic journals through its affiliation with Veritas. There are no time requirements or mandatory meetings, and you are encouraged to join other organizations as our club liaison. If you’re interested in becoming a member, are currently a member of the Honors Program, belong to a club that has or wants an Honors liaison, or have been invited by a current member, please contact Professor Elizabeth Hynes-Musnisky at,
HOTEL/RESTAURANT CLUB
The Hotel/Restaurant Club is represented by a group of serious students who are interested in fun, exciting experiences, and great memories. The club plans overnight trips, takes trips to the Culinary Institute of America, East End wineries, food service trade shows, and culinary exhibitions and tastings. In addition, we attend hotel/restaurant educational institutions for lectures and we sponsor an annual spring B-B-Q and an awards dinner social. All active members are eligible for the Christopher L. Argento “Excellence in Hospitality” award. We welcome ALL Nassau Community College students and encourage their involvement.
INTERACT is open to all Nassau Community College students. If you are interested in the field of social work, this is the club for you. Our goals are to work for social change and social justice and to raise awareness of human needs on Long Island. We adopt one or two agencies each year and work to fill some of their needs. Twice each year, we bring speakers to campus on large social issues, such as immigration, and more interpersonal matters, such as forgiveness. We attend conferences and have field trips. All in all, we have fun helping others while learning people and organizational skills to take into our careers.
