social
life at sac state
One of the most
important aspects of college is a well-developed social life. The great
thing about college is that it offers everything for everyone - no matter
what your interests are. Before you barrel through 4 or more years of
college and into the real world, get out and meet some people. Who knows?
You might have a good time in the process. It doesn't hurt to be a
well-rounded individual, either. Some of the most popular clubs and
organizations on campus include the following:
Go Greek! Say what you will about Greeks or their organizations,
but one thing has held through the many years since the inception of the
Greek system: friendship and a unique bond most clubs or organizations
can't provide. Being in a fraternity or sorority will give you an
atmosphere which provides the opportunity for lifelong friends, as well as
leadership, and giving back to the community. Ask any Greek if they have
enjoyed being in their fraternity or sorority, and they undoubtedly will
say "yes".
Did you know...
Joan Lunden was a member of the Delta Gamma sorority while at
Sac State? She was known back then as Joanie Blunden, before she became
the star of "Good Morning, America".

Green Thunder Since it's inception a couple of years ago, students
were finally given a forum to support the athletic program at Sac State.
Whether it's a big Causeway Classic promotion or going out and supporting
the hoops team, this is a group that is having a lot of fun and growing
every year.

ASI Being the capital of California, this seems to pop out in a
logical manner. In ASI, you'll have the opportunity to give back to the
school in a way you couldn't before through school government. ASI's
slogan is "students first", and anyone can get involved with
student government.

State Hornet/KSSU Maybe an open forum is a good place to express
yourself. Journalism and Communication Studies majors can find great
experience and a lot of fun in producing their own radio show or writing
their own column. It looks great on a resume, as well!

Ski Club One of the largest and most popular groups on campus is
the Ski Club. Skiiers and Boarders go up to the mountains regularly (for
obvious reasons) and have a hell of a lot of fun in the process. It's
great to live 45 minutes from the slopes!

Honorary Fraternities/Organizations If you're not really into the
Greek scene at Sac State, try and join a club that is focused on your area
of concentration. At the very least, it will look great on your resume,
and you're very likely to establish great contacts for once you graduate.
IM Sports/Club Sports If you played some sports in high school and
miss it a bit, try geting on an IM team, or maybe join one of the many
clubs on campus that play regularly. Most (if not all) club teams at Sac
State play Pac-10 schools such as Cal and Stanford, too.

CSUS Marching and Basketball Bands. Now that these teams are
starting to win, the more they win, the more trips the band gets to go on.
Plus the Marching Band has the single highest GPA of any student group on
campus. It is a great way to meet new people, make music, party, and
network. And no, not everyone is a band geek! For more information, their
website is at: Sac

The Dorms If you're a freshman and are hesitant to jump into any
clubs on campus, stay in the dorms for a year. Whether you're 18 or a
senior, chances are you'll be living with others your age. The room and
board may leave a little to be desired, but chances are you'll make
friends that will be around for many years to come.
