Florida Christian March Song

1.  Hail to Florida Christian College.
We thy sons and daughters praise thee
As we carry forth the gospel
Into all the world.
Standing true and faithful alway,
We will live for Christ in our day
As His Word we truly obey,
Marching through the world.

2. Come then, brothers, let us speed on
Building up the walls of Zion;
For the labor time is not long
To reach all the world.
Arm in arm we join together
To uphold our Alma Mater,
Wheresoever we may scatter
Throughout all the world.

Chorus:
Sons of FCC,
Daughters also to thee,
We pledge to stand, a valiant band
No matter what the price may be.
Pressing on to God and glory,
We must tell the old, old story;
And the zeal of dear FCC,
May it never cease.

Orientation

At the start of each semester, new and transfer students are led in a period of orientation, the purpose of which is to ease the transition to Florida Christian College by acquainting students with the mission, people, systems, and setting of Florida Christian College. 

Class Groups

FCC students are divided into class groups, (freshman, sophomore, etc.) each under the guidance of two faculty and staff members who serves as the Class Sponsor Team.  These class groups provide a basis for social activities and spiritual growth.  Your participation in them is very important and is strongly encouraged.

One College-wide social function is planned by each class annually. The class groups also serve as a basis for the Student Council - four class members are chosen each year to represent their interests to the Council.

Most classes also plan numerous dining or recreational get-togethers each year and develop some of the most meaningful relationships established during a student's years at FCC.
