Because we are such a small community, everybody is incredibly involved in sports and clubs on campus. Our student government and campus activites board are constantly planning fun activities, bring speakers to campus and making sure that there is always something to do on-campus. At the same time, Boston is 14 miles away, and there is a free shuttle service, so there is always something to do. The dorms are friendly and relatively small. Most of the partying consists of suite-parties (usually run by sports teams) and fraternity parties (of which about 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the student body goes greek). All parties are relatively inclusive, though often a person will choose either suite or fraternity parties and not go to the others.

The Babson campus has numerous organizations and clubs. Students are bound to find a group that is based around something they enjoy doing. There are four fraternities and three sororities on campus. Joining one of these chapters is not necessary in having an exciting social life. Babson also provides a shuttle into Boston each weekend. If one wishes to stay on campus there is a pub which is open Monday-Friday until midnight. Other than that Babson hosts many shows and once a month has a dance party which the majority of the student body attends.
