There are tons of things to do on a college campus and in college towns themselves. These are some of the "musts" that you need to do before the end of the semester at Lock Haven University.
1. Attend a sporting event.
There is nothing better than experiencing game day! No matter what the sport, go cheer on your fellow classmates.
2. Join a club.
There are over 100 clubs and organizations on campus. You should be able to find at least one club that has something to offer to you.
3. Go to local restaurants.
It is nice to have something other than Bentley every once in awhile. My advice is go out to eat. I am not going to put a specific restaurant because Lock Haven has so many to pick from! I just recommend that you support your locals.
4. Go to Avenue 209.
Coffee shops are my favorite and I don't even like coffee that much. That doesn't stop me from making frequent trips to Avenue 209. It is a great place to study, hang with friends, grab a drink and a snack and listen to live music!
5. Attend some programs in your residence hall.
Some of them are a lot more fun than you think they would be! I always love to take a quick break from my school work to go do some arts and crafts.6. Play an intramural sport.
You don't have to be great at the sport to participate. Intramural sports are a great way to stay active and to take some stress away.7. Go to a HAC sponsored event.
They put on great activities; it is a nice break away from school work.8. Meet up with a professor/advisor for coffee/lunch.
I love doing this because you can learn a lot from individuals who have a lot of experience in their field. Making connections early is very important.
9. Go to the university commons.
This is really a great space to just get outside and relax. We all need fresh air and this is a wonderful place on campus. Take a frisbee or a ball and go play in the grass.
10. Stay on campus for a weekend.
You should really stay on campus every weekend because there is so much to do and you will meet a lot of awesome people. If you don't want to stay every weekend, at least make it your mission to stay at least one. You won't regret it.
11. Visit the bookstore.
Now that our bookstore actually looks like a bookstore, it is amazing. Go check it out and buy some LHU gear.
12. Cook a meal with some friends.
Every once in a while, choose a night out of the week and plan to make a meal with some friends. Cooking can be really fun, and food is great!
