CMU offers a lot as a small town to make sure we have fun. There is of course the bar scene, but they offer a lot of recreational activities to keep students busy like rock climbing and bowling. The SAC is a great resource for working out. They have intramural sports any student can join. As well our tailgates are fun and we have a winning football team.

It would be hard to select the most popular organization because there are so many that have large numbers. In the dorms most people do leave their dorms and it is very welcoming. If I am up late it us usually cause I am hanging out with friends.

Central Michigan activities: party, tailgating, party! Okay not in all cases. Central offers a ton of options if you aren't into getting drunk every Thursday through Saturday (although there are places around Mt. Pleasant if you're into that kind of thing!). Activities are planned literally EVERY night so there's ALWAYS something to do. Guest speakers for you intellectual types, make your own rock pet for all you artists with senses of humor, etc. Personally, I believe you just need to get out and experience college for yourself. For me, it was joining a sorority. That way I get a taste of everything, parties, philanthropy, sisterhood, Greek Week. Whatever your cup of tea is, Central has it.

Sororities and drinking is about it.

I usually play intramural sports with people in my hall at the SAC. I really like being able to meet knew people, so I joined a few extracurricular activities, such as Pre-Physical Therapy Club and On the Fly Productions, where I have been able to meet tons of people. Most people in my dorm do leave their doors open because it is the leadership building and everyone knows each other. People party usually on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. We love going to each others rooms and hanging out and also going shopping around Mt. Pleasant.

I met my closest friends through being in a social sorority. We do a lot of things together such as attend sporting events and support other greeks philanthropies. I also met a good amount of friends in my major because I have class with them everyday.

I believe that Greek Life is very popular on our campus. I believe that it is important to get involved at CMU, that is what molds your college life. My sorority has really made the biggest impact on me. I have learned to build bonds with people I wouldn't have. I have learned how to work as a team, and I have truly learned the meaning of friendship. In the residence halls, I believe that most students leave their doors open. Especially in the towers, residence halls are seen as a social place. Athletic events are another thing that draws students. Students at CMU like to tailgate, which may actually cause more problems with rules and regulations. The dating scene here is okay. I haven't had a hard time finding someone :) I have been living with the same girls since my freshmen year. We all went in blind, and I could not imaging better roommates or friends. People party ALL the time. I have noticed, especially this year, that people party every day of the week.

Sigma Alpha Epsilon provides multiple activities. From philanthropy events to fundraisers to socials, there's never a dull moment.

Social life is definitely a highlight at CMU. Through Residence Life, Greek Life, and other clubs/organizations networking with students is easy and fun.
