AdmissionsGetting Involved (cont.)

Intramural SportsHave fun on a team or go solo in our intramural sports program. We offer everything from broomball and basketball to dodgeball tournaments and board games. Indoor and outdoor activities are available throughout the academic year: flag football, tennis, racquetball, badminton and volleyball are just a few. You also can bring your skates and join pick-up hockey games in Wessman Arena or enjoy open skating.

Superior AdventuresUW-Superior is just a short drive from Lake Superior and the forests, rivers and lakes of northwestern Wisconsin and northern Minnesota.

Our Superior Adventures program gives you easy access to the outdoors through safe, organized trips emphasizing adventure, environmental awareness, education, challenge, personal development, safety, a sense of community and fun. Join us for rock-climbing, kayaking, canoeing, winter hikes to the amazing ice caves on Lake Superior, skiing and snowboarding trips, and our annual spring break trip down south. Our trained Superior Adventures staff can help you explore new sports and develop new skills: get the hang of kayaking in our indoor pool or learn to climb on our indoor climbing wall.

Sport ClubsHave fun with your friends through our Sport Clubs. Each club is formed, developed, governed and administered by students in conjunction with our Sport Clubs Coordinator. The only limit is your imagination. You can join the Ultimate Frisbee Club, Martial Arts Club, Swim Club, Tennis Club or Outdoor Club. Learn something new by joining students from other countries in the Cricket Club or Lacrosse Club. Get a real taste of northern Wisconsin through the Ice Hockey Club.

For information on all of these opportunities, go to uwsuper.edu/recreation.

Residence HallsLiving on-campus gives you the greatest opportunity to get involved. From the day you move in, you are surrounded by a community of peers - some of whom will become your closest friends! The halls host great activities such as opening doors for trick-or-treaters from the community, floor competitions, and impromptu movie nights in the lounge.

You can also become part of the Residence Hall Association where you can help plan events and have a say in changes and improvements to living on campus.

Find out more about how great living on campus is by going to uwsuper.edu/reslife.
