Read MoreI think I should have made it clear by now that there is not much to do here at Clarkson, but if you are someone that knows how to have a good time no matter where, you have no problem. What people usually do to get their minds of school work or just to chill is to go for parties, to go bowling, to go mountain climbing, to go camping, to go round the really small town (You can even do this twice but make sure with friends, always with friends), to join really awesome clubs that have awesome meetings, to go for the Clarkson events like the hockey game or the basketball game, to go ice skating in the Cheel Arena, or just to hang out with friends. College life is all about experience, so make sure you have as much experience as you can.
