Although extracurricular activities are required for colleges, GPA also plays an important role. Once students begin college, there is a need to maintain good grades and most students choose to go to work to earn money. Sports can become a distraction to students.

A study published in 2007 focused on “high poverty high schools,” where at least half the students were on free or reduced lunch, it showed that the students that did not participate in extracurricular activities graduated from high school 69 percent of the time while students who did participate in extracurricular activities graduated 82.7 percent of the time (“Extracurriculars Boost High School Graduation Rates”).

These diverse topics reflect multiple disciplines that oceanographers blend to further knowledge of the world ocean and understanding of processes within it: biology, chemistry, geology, meteorology, and physics as well as geography.

There have been many studies done on the effectiveness extracurricular activities (ECAs) have on students, and how these activities produce miraculous outcomes and can be the foundation for the academic excellence of a student.

Even though there are many different extracurricular activities not many people get involved. There are many different reasons as to why people at a community college do not go the extra mile to get involved. Pannoni shares that one reason students do not get involved because “many students work and don 't have much time to be involved in anything other than getting a degree or taking classes… [and] many students who weren 't on campus when events were happening didn 't want to make a special trip just to attend.” (Pannoni 5).

This is a detrimental drawback to private schools since schools of higher education
