The 1,200 students at Stonehill College keep themselves busy doing a number of things besides studying. Stonehill is home to a busy undergraduate population whose varied coursework stretches from liberal arts to sciences to pre-professional programs. While their studies no doubt fill much of their day, students avail themselves of the time to take part in a tremendous number of clubs and organizations on campus.
Academic and pre-professional clubs include the Accounting Club, Anthropology Society, Biochemistry Club, Biology Society, Chemistry Club, Education Society, Healthcare Society, Pre-Law Society and the Psychology Society. Cultural and special interest clubs include the Activism Club, Art Club, Diversity on Campus, EMS Club, Mock Trial, Model UN, Philosophy Society, PRIDE, and the Spanish Club. Performance groups include the Art Club, Capoeria Club, Chapel Choir, Comedy Club, Dance Team, Girls from the Hill, Ruckus, Theatre Company and Surround Sound. Sport and recreation clubs provide a physical outlet for students, including the High Adventure Club, Running Club, Ski Club, Swim Club, Intramural Sports, Bowling, Cheerleading, Golf, and Ultimate Disc. Religious and service organizations provide students with a connection to the spiritual side of education, and with a means to become involved in altruistic endeavors in the community. Groups include “Into the Streets,” Knights of Columbus, Habitat for Humanity, Academic Club for Kids, Catholic Daughters of the Americas, Campus Christian Fellowship and more. Political and volunteer clubs are also popular on campus and include the College Democrats, College Republicans, Model UN, Politics Society, ACES (Active Concerned Educated Students) and SEA (Students for Environmental Action).
No matter what the particular interests of each student are, there is something for everyone at Stonehill College. The college is big enough to boast this long list of standing groups, and small enough that if you don’t see what you’re looking for you are free to begin your own group or host an event. Stonehill provides all students with the best of the academic experience they need and the extra curricular enjoyment they enjoy.
