Around Town

Much of Sewanee is centered around Greek Life. However, the parties are almost always open (and inclusive). This attitude is consistent with the general culture of Sewanee, as many who are not affiliated with a Greek organization still have an easy time hanging out at Fraternities (parties or not) throughout the weekend. There are non-alcohol-related activities sponsored by the University, as well.

Parties, Frats, Sorors, all that jazz ; but can be boring all at the same time. Whatever floats your boat.

While there are no shortage of parties on the weekends, Sewanee offers so much more, from free movie nights to hiking to white-water rafting, there is truly something to interest everyone.

For the outdoorsy type, there's hiking and caving and camping. Fraternities and sororities are a big part of campus life. There are also lots of outreach and volunteer opportunities. Swimming in the lake is always fun, and there is usually some sort of fun activity going on during the weekend.

Sewanee is beautiful and the nature is meant to be enjoyed; the students frequently go on hikes, for example. Greek life is prominent on campus, with 80% of the students being associated with a fraternity or sorority.

Parties are fun, so is visiting surrounding schools.

we live on 13,000 acres, so if you like being outdoors, this is the place to visit. also, nashville is 2 hours away, chattanooga is 45 minutes, atlanta is 2 hours, murfreesboro is 3. there's plenty of stuff to do on campus and off.
