There are numerous activities provided by RSO's such as OTF and Program Board. These can vary from speakers to concerts. There are other activities involving Greek Life dealing from philanthropy's to partying.
Becky
People party here like they do at most any other University across the campus. Greek life is not as vast here as at other campuses, but the population is close and IS growing.

Dorm life is fun. Many activities to keep busy. Doors are left open most of the time. I met my closest friends in my dorm and at parties or some in classes. I party every weekend. I am not involved with Greek life. I did go out drinking but instead there is bowling or hanging out but there really is no much else to do.

Social greeks seem to be the most popular but most hated organizations on campus. I have joined a social greek sorority and I absolutely love it and would not trade it for the world. The athletic events such as football to me seem to be very important to attend because everyone likes to tailgate before the game. In some cases it may not be true.

To me I think the most popular groups on campus is the Greek life. Only because it's a huge number of people and it's a social organization so the people that are involved in the groups have a positive attitude about them since they choose to be in them. I'm very involved with my social sorority on campus, I was the VP of my new member class, the philanthropy chair and now the New Member educator, I have been very involved since my freshmen year. When I lived in the dorms I always left my door open but not many people on my floor did. The only athletic event I attend are the football games and even then I don't go to many. I met my closest friends through the social sorority that I'm in. If I'm awake on Tuesday at 2am I'm either leaving the bar, awake doing homework and watching tv. People party all of the time. I go out every Thursday, Friday and Saturday no question, and occasionally on Sunday and Tuesday. Last weekend I had Greek Week Mock Rock on Friday, was a model for the fashion show at CMU on Saturday and went out Saturday night. If I don't do something that involves drinking on a Saturday night I'm either home or DD-ing for my sorority. Off campus I volunetter.

popular groups are greek life, student government. How many doors are open in a hall would depend on where the location is. On north campus, where I live, students are really involved and are in the honors program. My closest friends are my room mate and the sisters of my sorority. If I were awake at 2 am on a Tuesday, I would either be studying or watching TV. Athletic events are popular. Some traditions are homecoming and some of the other holidays have certain events. Last weekend was Greek Week and formal. Off campus there is dining, bowling, skating, shopping.
Shelby
I'm involved with the fraternity Sigma Alpha Epsilon; this is a fraternity comprised of campus leaders.
Lauren
The most popular organizations are Leadership organizations and Greek social organizations. There are many professional groups and fraternities that are popular on campus as well. I have been in a sorority since my freshman year, and I have learned to be very involved in campus through this. We attend speaker sessions and I am personally bringing a speaker to campus in a few weeks on how to improve recruitment in groups. Last weekend was the end of Greek Week and my sorority's formal. I did not drink much, as I was so exhausted from the week before. On a Saturday night when I am not drinking, I like to watch movies, go out to dinner, or play board games with friends.

Students in my dorm always left their dorms open, but the majority of the students were enrolled in the Honors College. Football games are a must, especially tailgating. Central/Western weekend is huge (CMU vs. WMU football game). My closest friends are people from high school (not necessarily friends from high school) or people I met in my dorm my freshman year.
Allie
If I'm awake at 2am on a Tuesday it is probably because I just got home from O'Kellys, having enjoyed dollar pints all evening.
Ryan
CMU knows how to have fun. The night life is much better than people let on. There is always something to do and our school brings in great speakers and performers.
Jerry
Good community to have a social life.
Ali
It's a great place to meet new people. The greek life is awesome and other student organized groups are just as wonderful. You truly become close with the people you share many common interests in. There is always something going on.
james

A lot of people go to the bars (Pub, Wayside/OKellys/Bird)
I met all of my close friends either though the dorms or though Greek Life.
Samantha
I am part of the Delta Zeta sorority and I love it. I know a lot of other girls and guys that are part of a different sororities or fraternities and they love it too. On Saturdays instead of drinking you can go bowling or skating. There is a lot to do besides party.
Alex
The Greeks are popular on campus, and there are four strong sororities: Delta Zeta, Zeta Tau Alpha, Tri Sigma and Phi Sigma Sigma. Many freshmen dorms leave their doors open but in the upperclassmen dorms, they tend to stay closed. If I'm awake at 2am on a Tuesday it's because I'm drunk. People usually go out Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Emily
Central michigan has a great social life, my objective might be scewwed due to the fac tthat i am in a sorority
Anja
Social life is alot of fun at Central. Being in a sorority has been alot of fun, there are many funraisers that you can attend for Greek life at CMU and its a great way to meet people.
