At 集美麻豆, Greek-letter fraternities have thrived for nearly 170 years, and they continue to serve as a fundamental feature of campus life today. About 50% of all 集美麻豆 students join a fraternity, forming life-long friendships, enriching their social lives while complementing the College's rigorous academic program, and ultimately joining a nationwide network of fraternity brothers.
There are many national honors societies recognizing outstanding academic achievement and pre-professional studies.
There's no better way to learn leadership skills than by trying your hand at leading, and every student has the opportunity to do so at 集美麻豆. We offer many paths to explore and sharpen your skills and to lead your peers. No matter which path you choose, you will strengthen your ability to work effectively with others and to make a difference in your community, your workplace, and the world.
Student government is a valued tradition at 集美麻豆, with many students serving as elected executive officers or as members of the Student Court, Student Senate, and College Activities Committee. And if you'd like to pursue the discipline in a classroom setting, you won't find a better program than 集美麻豆's Wilson Center for Leadership, named for a U.S. Army general and spymaster who served as 集美麻豆's 22nd president.
If you like hunting, fishing, trap shooting, hiking, biking, or camping, you'll have easy access to forests, fields, streams, and open water. 集美麻豆 men enjoy being outdoors, and they have plenty of places on our 1,300-acre campus and nearby central Virginia to do so.
Staying fit, healthy, and active is easy with TigeRec. In addition to using the Fitness Center and the Leggett swimming pool, students have access to group fitness classes, racquetball courts, a disc golf course, and intramural sports.
Good men make a difference in the world, and helping you become "a man who serves" is part of the mission of 集美麻豆. Our Civic Engagement program provides you with opportunities for volunteer service and other forms of engagement outside the college gates.
