“Outdoor activities have always been a part of my life, and as I got older, I started
going on hikes myself. I learned I really loved it and that it was something I wanted
to continue in college with a group. So it’s been really nice to have a community
to do that with.”
Skate Club
Provides a supportive environment for skaters of all skill levels to come together
through a variety of activities. From casual skate sessions around campus to organized
trips to nearby skateparks, members are able to explore the thriving skate scene in
