Around Town

Watch a movie outside, play a game of sand volleyball, visit the McDonald's Observatorium, as well as take a trip to Marfa to visit the Marfa Lights. Take a trip to Balmorea and dip into the fresh spring fed pool, or hike up the davis mountains. Travel even further away and camp at the Big Bend National forest!

Visit border town Mexico, and mid-town...plenty of shopping.

For fun well there isn't much to do in town but there are some things that one can do for fun on campus like going to the school gym and play soccer with friends or go to the campus swimming pool.

Behind the dorms there is a trail to hike the mountain, and there is a couple bars in town, and big bend is just an hour away.

Honestly, there is nothing to do but maybe intramural sports and watching athletic teams perform.

Sul Ross leadership organizations are constantly sponsoring various events for all students to attend. Including bingo nights, famous comedians, plays, and dorm room floor get together. Sul Ross also provides each dorm room floor with a media room and there is a room next to the cafeteria providing pool tables, video games, and ping pong as well as the rec center and the museum of Big Bend located on campus.

The greatest thing to do here for fun is to hang out with your friends and go dancing.

Go to the mall to hang out with friends when you want to sit outside. Also go to the University Center to play games such as pool, ping pong, and xbox 360

The things to do for fun at Sul Ross are playing volleyball in the sand pits, go swimming, go for hikes around the mountains, attend the school rodeos, go horseback riding in the arena and walk around the lovely town. Sul Ross is located in Alpine which has a small population but the community is very close so they always have fun events for the students to attend. For fun, students can also go to the bars with friends, attend the movies, play in the game rooms or go to the other small towns that surround Alpine.

There are a lot of extracurricular activities to do.
