Purpose
The Student Organization Center at Hilles has been designed to draw Harvard's vast, diverse, and stimulating network of student organizations together into one space that can support their individual goals while sparking new channels of conversation and collaboration. The College values experiential learning through co-curricular activities, and the SOCH provides a forum for this learning to occur.
The SOCH is open to all Harvard College students and student organizations, regardless of whether they hold office space in the Center. The open nature of the building, extensive technological resources, and unprecedented dedication of resources have been established to facilitate collaboration and strengthen relationships between groups, and to create a social space that fosters community.

- to provide student organizations at Harvard College with offices in which to create sustainable organizations;
- to help integrate students' curricular and co-curricular lives;
