Campus Community
THERE'S MORE TO COLLEGE PARK THAN A UNIVERSITY
It's easy to get wrapped up in all the academics, administration, financial issues, housing woes, etc.... At some point you have to decompress. Part of that process is getting out in the world and meeting people with both similar and different backgrounds in a more casual, fun environment. Sometimes it's just participating or watching a sporting event. Check our list below for opportunities to enhance your lifestyle while living in terp territory!
