The Livestock Judging team travels and competes on a local, regional, and national level.

Students on the judging team are not responsible for any costs associated with travel, lodging, or contest entry fees. Travel with the team allows students with an interest in livestock to see some of the most progressive and influential livestock operations throughout the country. 

Students will learn about the market and breeding beef, swine, sheep, and goats.

Academics are a strong component of the program and our students are committed to academic excellence. With a quality education, livestock judging experience students can bring that knowledge back to the community, their own herds, or businesses. Students can transfer onto to a 4-year University or stay here and get the BAS Ag Leadership degree.

Students will learn to identify characteristics of high-quality animals and bring that knowledge back to the community, their own herds, or businesses.

The Deputy Recruiters are a group of CWC students that have been selected by the Admissions Office to serve as official hosts and student representatives of the College.

The Deputy Recruiters are not a club, but rather an employment agreement between each member and the Admissions Office. All members are expected to fulfill all obligations and responsibilities, as with any other job.

Recruiters should have experiential information to share with prospective students. This may include everything from living in campus housing, eating at dining facilities, experiencing the campus life, to adjusting to new study habits.

They are also trained to share factual information about campus offerings and policies. They are aware of programs currently being offered at the College, including academic, athletic, student activities, as well as other Student Affairs programs.

For more information, please contact Rachel Hofer, rhofer@cjpk.net in the Admissions Department.

Queer-Straight Alliance (QSA) is a student-initiated and student-run club where LGBTQ2 and other interested students can meet in a safe and supportive environment to share ideas, hang out with allies and educate the community on what it is like to be a non-traditional student.

The idea is to work for educational justice by creating a school environment free of discrimination, harassment, and intolerance. The club at CWC is regenerating and hopes to organize in coalition with other groups across identity lines to address broader issues of oppression and education.

The club is open to all interested students. We are hoping to make connections statewide to develop community awareness, fun activities, and fundraising events full of leadership opportunities. Safe Zone Training for CWC Campus is on the list of possibilities!
