Student Clubs And Disabled Students Unlimited (DSU)

Student activities, government and club functions are rewarding opportunities for involvement and enrichment. A wide variety of clubs offer opportunities for students to come together to pursue common interests. Check with Student Activities at http://www.deanza.edu/clubs/

The Disabled Students Unlimited (DSU) club is an active student advocacy and activity club. It meets bi-weekly and sponsors the following types of activities:

• Scholarships
• Emergency book grants
• Cap and gown grants

It also underwrites numerous social activities and events enjoyed by the entire DSPS Division, such as:

• Spring Celebration for students receiving degrees and transfers
• Holiday Party
• Summer ice cream party
• Spring APE bar-b-que

Social events are planned on a quarterly basis. These have included activities such as kayaking, restaurant evenings, ball games, theater visits, museum days. Each spring the group plans a major overnight trip for its members. Past trips have included camping at state parks, a train ride to historical Sacramento, an overnight excursion to Santa Rosa and a visit to the Wild Animal Park.

Funds for these activities are raised by club members who participate in De Anza’s flea market.
