The Student Life Office, located in the Margaret Lesher Student Union Building, is a center for student engagement, campus involvement, and leadership development. Our staff works in partnership with ASDVC, student clubs, campus departments, and the broader community to bring a wide range of experiences and opportunities to campus.
DVCsync
DVCsync is the online platform for DVC's clubs, Associated Students (ASDVC), and Inter-Club Council (ICC). It's a one-stop hub where students and staff can browse and join organizations, discover events, and stay connected with student life on campus.
For clubs and student government, DVCsync streamlines registration, renewals, and event requests, and includes tools for file management, messaging, discussion boards, elections, and officer and advisor transitions, keeping a running digital history of student organizations along the way.

Additional Services
-
The Student ID card is your student photo ID. But it is much more than that. This card is also your library card, and much more.
You will use your DVC Connect card to use computer labs, receive counseling services, attend college events, and more. You may also add money to your card for printing in computer labs and libraries.
The Connect card is free to all students with a black and white photo. A color photo is available for $4.
A photo identification is required to obtain your student ID card. You must be enrolled in classes at least 48 hours before you will be able to obtain your student ID card.

The ASDVC discount sticker costs $10 per semester. The benefits of purchasing a sticker include:
- a five percent (5%) discount on textbooks and other items from the DVC Book Center

- discounts from many off campus businesses (list available in the student life office at the Pleasant Hill campus)
The sticker is issued through the student life office on the Pleasant Hill campus, and at the welcome desk (West Building lobby) on the San Ramon campus.
