Around Town

Like I had previously said, there isn't much to do around here. You really have to create your own fun. We are near Olgebay Park which has a lot of great outdoor activities. We are also near the city of Wheeling which offers a few things to do as a college student. If you're willing to drive, Pittsburgh isn't too far from here either. If you're the type of person who expects the fun to present itself to you, you will definitely not be happy here.

I did sports that took up most of my time

Don't plan on having a ball going out because this collage isn't near the hottest night clubs. Sports, family and friends is what most students enjoy about WLU.

There is always something going on, from ice-cream socials to church bonfires to Greek Life T-shirt tye-dying events. The first week is packed with fun activities to get you out there and help you meet other people.

Hang out with friend on the weekend if they stay. There are some fun activities on the weekdays. There are a lot of games for football and basketball.

There isn't much to do for fun in the town the college is in. However, there is a zoo, golf course, ski slope within 10 miles of the college. It is also about 20 miles from a big city.

As I mentioned, lots of shopping and dining opportunities.

The University offers free tickets to sporting events for students, they also offer movie and game nights for students to attend.

hang out with friends

There is always some kind of activity or show happening on campus. But for fun off-campus you generally have to drive at least 20 minutes in any direction to get anywhere with a mall or movie theater.
