Intramural sports are popular among the residents in the hall.
The men and women in Olin Hall are involved in a number of groups, organizations, and activities across campus, including leadership and volunteering through the Volunteer Services office. The relaxed atmosphere in Olin helps all residents experience friendship, fun, and responsibility.
