Resident advisors sponsor hall activities aimed at building community and addressing topics important to young people living away from home for the first time. Your son or daughter might want to get involved in a club related to his or her major, join in a community-service activity, or intramural athletics. Speakers and performers also visit campus regularly, and our music department puts on great performances regularly. In addition to the content knowledge gained in the classroom, your son or daughter will have numerous opportunities to put that knowledge to work in internships and co-ops. And our Career Services Center offers help in selecting a career, preparing for interviews, polishing a r sum and more.
Campus activities provide much more than a good time and a way to make new friends.

Activities related to a major can greatly enhance what your son or daughter is learning in the classroom, and activities outside the major can broaden his or her education.
