What are the most popular student activities/groups?

There isn't one particular group on campus that is more important than the other. There are over 350 organizations that are equally important to each individual some way. It all determines the interest of the individual. However, CAB (Campus Board Activities) is one of the popular ones. This group host events such as parties, free food, game night, and much more on the weekends for students to participate in. Many students from observation participate in the intramural sports, but it is all about interest. Everyone likes different things. Partying is something everyone likes to do. It's college. However, most parties are off campus, but there is transportation provided. UNC Charlotte used to be a commuter campus where people would leave to go home on the weekends, so there are many groups who hold events that encourage students to stay. There are plenty of events to participate that do not involve drinking, and there are many events to participate in that do involve drinking, to each their own. In all, living in dorms and making new friends people find stuff to do all the time throughout the week. The more involved you are, the more fun you have because you know more people.

I wouldn't necessarily say that one particular group on campus is more important than the other. In my opinion, the activities and groups are what make up UNC Charlotte and present all students and opportunity to get involved and make a difference in campus life. I am a part of the campus gospel choir, the Voices of Eden. We sing at events on campus as well as churches, weddings, holiday parties, etc. There are no auditions for the choir giving everyone a chance to worship with us. Actually, I met some of my closest friends during my time in the choir. Aside from on campus events, there is a lot to do off campus as well. Not far from the school is Concord Mills Mall. Concord Mills also has an indoor and outdoor Nascar racing track as well as a movie theater. For racing fans, the Charlotte Motor Speedway isn't too far either. Currently, UNCC students are preparing for the big Homecoming game on the 11th! With that being said, there are an abundance of activities occurring on campus ranging from tailgating to family day!

People love sports on our campus! Our soccer team was the runner up in the national championship this year and we're in the process of building a brand new football stadium. Basketball is so huge on campus. Students are also very involved in greek life here.

Here at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte there are hundreds of organizations to get involved in. In my opinion the most popular organizations on campus are greek organizations and sports teams. I am involved in a few organizations on campus but the one that I am the most involved in the dance team. The dance team has been a great way for me to meet new friends, stay in shape, do community service as well as do what I love. UNC-Charlotte has so many opportunities for students to get involved so take advantage of them and get involved! :)
