Setting Up Extracurricular Activities
To set up extracurricular activities, use the Extracurricular Activity Table component (EXTRA_ACTIVITY_TBL).
You can track both internal and external extracurricular activities for individuals.
This section discusses how to set up extracurricular activity codes for this purpose. You will later use the Extracurricular Activity page to link these codes to students.

Select the type of activity that you are entering. Values for this field are delivered with your system as translate values. You can modify these values. The delivered values are Athletics, Club, Employment, Music, Other, Publications, Student Government, Theater, and Volunteer. |
Internal and External |
Select this option to indicate that this extracurricular activity exists at your institution as well as at external institutions. |
Internal |
Select this option to indicate that this extracurricular activity exists at your institution only. |
External |
Select this option to indicate that this extracurricular activity exists at external institutions only. |
Extra Activity Primacy |
Enter the primacy number for this extracurricular activity. When you run the Consolidate Academic Statistics process it searches students' extracurricular activity records for only the athlete extracurricular activity. The athlete extracurricular activity is delivered with your system. It should not be modified in any way because it has code attached to it. If the Consolidate Academic Statistics process finds multiple athlete records for a student, it writes the one with the lowest primacy number to the student's consolidated statistics record. |
