Architecture is a time consuming major, but is rarely a student's only interest. Many find it possible to take on an additional major such as art history or to perhaps add a minor in music. With a bit of extra planning, this is certainly possible to accomplish in the course of one's five year program. The majority of these extra programs will take place outside the School of Architecture in the College of Arts and Letters, etc. This has quickly become a much sought after course program and can easily be set into one's fourth and fifth year schedule.

Especially favored are frisbee and hacky sack and a good harmonica or guitar player will quickly win everyone over.
