History
The Associated Students of Grossmont College was incorporated in 1970 in order to serve the students of Grossmont College. Early in the college’s existence, the ASGC, Inc. selected the representative colors (green and gold), mascot (griffin), and establish a functional student government. Throughout the college’s history, the ASGC, Inc. has been instrumental in the construction of the campus bookstore, the financing of scholarships to students, providing equipment and technologies campus-wide, and the purchase of “College Connection” (Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District’s phone-in registration system).
The ASGC, Inc. continues to be the source through which Grossmont students expand their experiences far beyond what they obtain from classroom instruction alone.
