National Association of Campus Activities (NACA)

SUNY Orange is a member of the National Association of Campus Activities. NACA's school membership provides colleges and universities with the opportunity to become part of the nation’s premiere campus activities organization.

Nearly 1,100 schools from across the country are members of NACA, including large and small institutions, public and private schools, two and four year colleges and universities, and community, junior and technical colleges.

All member schools share the desire to participate in an organization that helps them create better programming opportunities for students, providing them with information and programs to help enrich the overall educational experience, while also keeping them up-to-date with the latest in the campus activities profession (courtesy of NACA).

The college cannot be responsible for the content of this page, although the link has been reviewed and is recommended by members of Student Activities.)

NACA is split into seven regions. SUNY Orange is in the Mid-Atlantic region along with other schools from New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Washington DC (and the surrounding metro area) and the Canadian Province of eastern Ontario.

Each region holds annual conventions. Active members of the Board of Activities have the opportunity to attend this convention to have a great time while developing leadership skills and attending leadership training workshops.
