Amnesty International is a worldwide movement of people who campaign for internationally recognized human rights. Amnesty's vision is of a world in which every person enjoys all of the human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international human rights treaties. In pursuit of this vision, Amnesty's mission is to undertake action focused on preventing and ending grave abuses of civil and political rights: those abuses which endanger physical and mental integrity, freedom of conscience and expression, and freedom from discrimination, within the context of its work to promote all human rights. As the Claremont Colleges Chapter of Amnesty International, we support the goals and vision of Amnesty. We hope to expose human rights abuses and spread awareness of these issues on the five campuses through forums, discussions, informational exhibits, film festivals, and lectures. We also participate in the international letter-writing movement, which supports victims of human rights abuses by writing letters of appeal to perpetrators of human rights abuses and letters of support to their victims. In addition, Amnesty is proud to participate in joint activism with all other human rights groups on the Claremont Colleges. Although Amnesty International as formal global institution fights works primarily toward protecting civil and political rights, we at the Claremont Colleges are also actively working to spread awareness of and protect social, cultural, and economic rights: those rights to water, food, work, education, health care, and housing.a

The mission of Claremont PALS is to introduce elementary school children from Claremont to the wonders of science. Since most elementary school teachers do not have the time, the motivation, or the funding to spend a large portion of time teaching science in their classes, the members of Claremont PALS dedicate 1-2 hours per week to teach a science lesson at either Chaparral or Mountain View Elementary in order to encourage young children to pursue science. Claremont PALS is a mentorship program, providing the youth from the local schools with positive role models from the Claremont Colleges. Members of the Claremont PALS design and conduct experiments as well as create their own weekly lesson plans for an elementary school class. Also, the Claremont PALS has opened up the Bernard Field Station as a project site for the older students at the local elementary schools. Members of the Claremont PALS hope to establish the BFS as a field trip location for the students at the schools where they can conduct their own biology experiments. The Claremont PALS hopes to create a stronger bond between the Claremont Colleges and the surrounding community by building bridges between the youth of Claremont and the college students at the 5 Colleges as well as by establishing a communication network between the teachers at Chaparral and Mountain View with the Professors at the Joint Science Department and the student volunteers. Claremont PALS has been working closely with Lori Kerns, the principal at Chaparral Elementary and Mike Lawshe, the principal at Mountain View Elementary in establishing the foundation for this program.

During the 2004 election year the Democrats of the Claremont Colleges experienced a huge surge in membership. On average during the first semester there were between 50-100 people at every weekly meeting, the first meeting of the year had an attendance in excess of 150 people squeeze into Beckett Lounge at CMC. We are expecting that same encouragement and possibly more as this election cycle has seen huge increases in the number of young people involved. The Democrats of the Claremont Colleges is also the second largest chartered college club in the state, only behind UC Berkeley. One of our ongoing goals is to continue the tradition of being one of the most recognized and organized clubs in the state and giving our members the opportunities to meet high level officials through traveling to functions, hosting events and volunteering on campaigns.

(1) Extravaganza will be dedicated to students to showcase their love for their culture (or another) within a peaceful and harmonious platform. (2) As the Claremont Colleges advocate diversity as liberal arts colleges, Extravaganza will foster a sense of understanding and learning of new and different cultures as students teach and learn from each other of their distinct traditions, customs, and culture. (3) We recognize the creativity and many times differing opinions of students from different familial and cultural backgrounds on social and political issues. Extravaganza will serve as a base for students to discuss, argue, and defend their opinions in the context of their respective backgrounds, which serves a greater purpose then merely arguing without background history. (4) Extravaganza serves students learning new languages as a wonderful source of learning tool. The contents of Extravaganza are virtually endless; ranging from fictional stories, to poems, to political opinions, and even to comic strips.

Hillel at the Claremont Colleges strives to serve the needs of all Jewish students in Claremont. We seek to provide programming that covers a variety of functions and Jewish identities. To us, this means programming that is: Culturally Jewish - Whether it be programming about Ashkenazi Jewish life in Europe and the United States, a Sephardic and/or Mizrachi Lunch and Learn, or a presentation of Jewish life in a variety of cultures and contexts; including our own. Israel-Oriented – We seek to provide opportunities to learn about and discuss the situation in Israel. We strive to provide an open environment in which a variety of attitudes toward Israel are talked about and accepted. Religious – We seek to provide student lead services and appropriate religious activities during the school year. It is our hope that the majority of religious Jewish students in the Claremont Colleges will find a new home in our community and with the support of our Chaplaincy. Social – We seek to provide opportunities for Jewish students to socialize with each other regardless of their background of how they come to identify as Jewish. We seek to provide social programs that are purely social, where Jewish students come to be “just Jewish” with other students. Social Justice – Whether the students come to social justice through the religious mandate or for personal reasons, we seek to provide opportunities for students to engage in tikkun olam, repairing the world. Community Outreach – We seek to reach out to other local Jewish and non-Jewish organizations in order to put the student community out into the world and to bring the world into the student community. We believe that students too easily get drawn into life at the colleges and forget about the community surrounding us. We seek to resist that tendency by bringing others in. Hillel Knesset strives to provide a welcoming home for every Jewish student in Claremont regardless of what his or her Jewish background might be. Because of this, we are obligated both by ourselves and b Hillel International to provide a variety of opportunities, all of which are non-alcoholic. We further believe that we best accomplish this goal through small group activities and events, rather than large celebrations.

The mission of the Claremont Colleges’ Indoor Soccer Club is to establish a Claremont Colleges Indoor Soccer Team. Since there is no Indoor Soccer Team at the 5 Colleges, this club would like to provide students who are not members of the Varsity soccer teams with the opportunity to play in a competitive league in Upland. This club would encourage the members of the 5 Colleges to become active and would build a community between the schools, as teammates from different schools could work together as a single Claremont Team. The club is also open to faculty and staff at the Claremont Colleges. This club would allow students who may not have the time or the skill to play on the Varsity sports teams a chance to play soccer in a competitive atmosphere. The club would also hold open practices once per week either at the LAC at HMC or on the Tiernan Field.

Judaism is an extremely community-based religion, with a significant number of Jews who do not attend religious services, but identify themselves as Jews because of their family and community connections to the religion. It is the mission of the JSU to strengthen the Jewish community, revive participation in Jewish student life activities, create interesting social and educational programs, and encourage currently non-affiliated Jews to be part of the Jewish student life on campus. We aim to organize programming that addresses specific needs, concerns, and interests of the Jewish students on campus. Our mission will help to strengthen the entire 5-C community by helping current Jewish students feel comfortable here and also attracting prospective students who are concerned that there be a Jewish community at their desired academic institution.

Founded in 1958 as the first college lacrosse club in Southern California, the Claremont Cougars Men's Lacrosse Club promotes and facilitates the fast-growing sport of men's lacrosse at The Claremont Colleges. The Club participates in the Men’s Collegiate Lacrosse Association, the club equivalent of the NCAA. The team currently plays in the Western Collegiate League ""A"" division. Located in the Los Angeles region, the team's league opponents are Chapman University, UC Santa Barbara, UCLA, the University of Southern California, and Loyola Marymount University. In addition, the team must schedule games against opponents from across the country, including (in recent years) the University of California at Berkeley, Boston College, and the University of Utah. Competing at a very high level for a club, the team last won the WCLL divisional ""B"" championship in 2003. The team also went to the ""B"" national tournament in 2006, and qualified for the ""A"" playoffs in 2007, their first year in the higher league. This season the Cougars are ranked 23rd nationally with a record of 11-2 within the MCLA. The Cougars’ goals for the upcoming season are to win the national tournament and to achieve greater participation within the 5C’s. In addition the Cougars hope to help spread the popularity of the great sport of lacrosse. The student-run Club welcomes new players, who are introduced to the increasingly popular sport, as well as helps established players continue their love for the game. The elected team captains and presidents are responsible for managing the operations of the Club, including coaching and/or retaining a professional coach, scheduling practices and games, organizing road trips, maintaining equipment, and fundraising. The team must raise significant funds every year in order to participate successfully in the MCLA. In addition to the generous donations, each member of the Cougars is required to pay $850 in dues. No other organization in the 5C’s has members contribute a comparable amount. The Men's Lacrosse team enhances the reputation of the Claremont Colleges as a perennial national powerhouse in club lacrosse.

The Claremont Colleges Ski Club, popularly known as SKEEZE, is a vibrant and active community of winter-sports enthusiasts that spans the 5-C’s. In addition to bringing people from different colleges together, SKEEZE grants students the opportunity to escape campus and provides a way to experience our fantastic natural surroundings. The purpose of the club is to facilitate student-run ski and snowboard trips and to cultivate enthusiasm and interest in these sports among the Claremont Colleges student body. Our goal is to match the interest in skiing and snowboarding on the 5-C campus with an assortment of well-organized, well-researched, and efficient ski and snowboarding trips, as well as similarly managed social and educational events. We recognize skiing and snowboarding as exceptionally enjoyable and healthy activities in which all should have the option to partake. We also recognize that skiing and snowboarding are financially taxing and somewhat technical sports. Unfortunately, this often prevents the average college student from fully enjoy these rewarding activities. We, as a club, uniquely exist to circumvent these problems by providing monetary support for trips and arranging member discounts. Last year was a banner year for SKEEZE. Not only did our club membership grow to its highest level ever, but we began establishing long-term relationships with local business and ski areas. Building off these relationships, next year we intend to establish programs that will provide our members with discount lessons and learn-to-ski packages for a fraction of their official cost. We expect our membership to increase with these programs, and the number of student-led trips to grow with it. The Claremont Colleges Ski Club has the unequivocal mission to fully facilitate students – both well-funded and under-funded – in learning and enjoying the sports of skiing and snowboarding in every way possible. Please visit www.skeeze.org for more information.

Students for the Bernard Field Station (SBFS) is a nonviolent group of students at the Claremont Colleges fighting for the preservation in perpetuity of the entire Robert Bernard Biological Field Station (BFS) and opposing any plans to develop this land. One of our principal motivations for saving this natural and endangered Claremont habitat is our belief that the BFS struggle is a micro-level analogy for extensive widespread degradation of the environment throughout the US and the world. SBFS is therefore a group determined to stop the destruction of a natural habitat by what we believe to be extraneous development. We furthermore believe that the structure of CUC is not conducive to healthy student input on issues such as the BFS. It is therefore our mission to network with environmental groups, students, and faculty across the 7Cs so that the BFS will be respected as a valuable academic and ecological resource for decades to come.

Under the Lights is CMC’s longest-running theater group. CMC students who are interested in a more informal theater experience than that offered in the Pomona theater department founded Under the Lights in 1988. From its small beginnings, Under the Lights has become one of the most highly-respected and active organizations on campus. The basic components of UTL’s mission are as follows: 1) To provide high-quality, low-stress theater for everyone interested. UTL maintain a balance between high-quality shows and not asking for an unreasonable time commitment from its members. 2) To create an inclusive theater community that encourages participation. Tryouts are casual, and all that is really needed for involvement with UTL is the desire to be on stage and the willingness to have fun. 3) To produce top-quality plays for the CMC community. Our productions in both the fall and the spring semesters are free to students, faculty, and staff. Over the past few years, our work has been rewarded with packed houses.

United Students Against Sweatshops is an international student movement of campuses and individual students fighting for sweatshop free labor conditions and workers' rights. We define 'sweatshop' broadly and recognize that it is not limited to the apparel industry, but everywhere among us. We believe that university standards should be brought in line with those of its students who demand that their school's logo is emblazoned on clothing made in decent working conditions. We have fought for these beliefs by demanding that our universities adopt ethically and legally strong codes of conduct, full public disclosure of company information and truly independent verification systems to ensure that sweatshop conditions are not happening. Ultimately, we are using our power as students to affect the larger industry that thrives in secrecy, exploitation, and the power relations of a flawed system. USAS' three cornerstone campaigns are the Sweat-Free Campus Campaign, the Ethical Contracting Campaign, and the Campus Living Wage Campaign.
