Around Town

Athens is a very small town, so for fun, the students usually head out to Princeton or Bluefield. On campus, there really is not much to do unless you're an active person. Volleyball and the swimming pool is just about it for the on-campus fun.

Greek life is popular on campus.

Movies, Greek life, intramural sports, and attending sports events.

There are many different organizations and groups that meet on campus. There is little to do off campus because Concord University is located in a small town.

Since Concord is located in a small town there is not much to do, so we make our own fun. Greek Life is big here and we really focus on homecoming. We spend hours creating a float for the parade, learning a dance that we use to compete in the night before the big football game,and countless hours creating billboards to prove that our organization is the best. Football is big at our school to and most of the student body goes to the games to show our boys support.

The Student Activities Committee is always planning fun events like Bingo. And the different organizations also have events throughout the year. There is a mall and movie theater about 15 minutes away as well as a skating rink and bowling alley. There is also a state park with lots to do as well.

The entertainment all depends on you as a student. Concord tries to provide things like comedians, movies, and other activities to make it fun. It is really all that you make it. I personally like to go to the park at night and look at the stars, for it is quiet, and it has a great view.
