Student Life
The Office of Student Life oversees all student-administered interests. There are a variety of on-campus and off-campus activities that are sponsored by the university. More than 80 clubs and student organizations exist, including the Student Government Association, Titan Productions, political and spiritual groups and other clubs related to student interests.
The Student Government Association (SGA) consists of 12 senators, a president, a vice president, a secretary and a treasurer. SGA allocates student activity funds and serves as a student voice for the administration. The Student Government Judicial Council interprets and provides guidance on the SGA Constitution and Policies, consisting of a chief justice and four associate justices.
Titan Productions is a student organization funded through the Student Activity Fee (SAF) whose purpose is to plan and present non-academic entertainment and programs primarily for the student body of IU South Bend. The organization hosts movie nights and special entertainment on campus.
IU South Bend has a weekly student publication called The Preface. The university also publishes the annual Undergraduate Research Journal, New Views on Gender, and an award-winning literary magazine, Analecta.
The Office of Student Services provides on-campus career placement center, child development center, and learning and writing centers, which offer free, on-site tutoring.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“The student who secures his coveted leisure and retirement by systematically shirking any labor necessary to man obtains but an ignoble and unprofitable leisure, defrauding himself of the experience which alone can make leisure fruitful.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as that soul was whose progeny they are; nay, they do preserve as in a vial the purest efficacy and extraction of that living intellect that bred them. I know they are as lively, and as vigorously productive, as those fabulous dragon’s teeth; and being sown up and down, may chance to spring up armed men.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
