Currently enrolled students may access the Campus Cupboard, WCTC's on-campus food pantry, for nutritional assistance. Students must show a current WCTC student ID card in order to pick up a pre-packed bag of groceries, which contains breakfast, lunch and dinner items. Limit one bag per week per student. Campus Cupboard bags may be picked up at the Student Life office (C-121). After hours pick ups are also available.

Awards Ceremonies
Each semester, the Student Life office sponsors the Student Awards Program. This is a time for us to recognize the outstanding achievements of our graduating students.
Program Awards
Faculty are asked each semester to nominate (1) student per program to receive the "Outstanding Program Award." These students represent the "best of the best" in their respective academic program. The selection process is left to the discretion of each program area, but the following criteria should be used:
Club Awards
Club Advisors are asked each semester to nominate one graduating club member to receive the "Outstanding Club Member Award." Each club is free to use their own selection process.
Outstanding Student Award
All Program Award recipients are invited to apply for one of four Outstanding Student Awards (one per School). The students are asked to complete an application and submit a professional resume. The awards committee, comprised of a cross-section of staff members, conducts interviews to select the top student in each school who represents the spirit and mission of WCTC.
Honor Societies
Phi Theta Kappa is an organization that has been named the official honor society of two-year colleges by the American Association of Community Colleges and recognizes the academic achievement of college students. PTK provides opportunities for its members to grow as scholars and leaders.
