North Carolina State University at Raleigh Top Questions

Greek Life spices it up alot!

There so many things to get involved in at NC State. There is a place for everyone to fit in and something for everyone to do on the weekends.

the most popular groups are sororities and fraternities. NCSU's greek life is growing and more people are joining. sports teams are also very popular, especially football and basketball. i am involved with sigma kappa sorority. i live in a freshman dorm and i feel comfortable leaving my doors open. people at state go out a lot, even during the week. last weekend i went to Carolina Cup which is a horse race in south carolina. i went with an ncsu fraternity.

I am not sure what the most popular groups on campus are. I suppose intramural sports are a big deal. I am involved in the greek life so I would say that but greek life makes up a small percentage of the total student body.

I am very involved in Greek Life

Sigma Kappa

Greek life at NCstate is popular, however not as prevelant as in some other colleges. Through Sigma Kappa sorority and fraternities that we often hang out with is where i have met the majority of my friends at state.

Most students participate in one thing of another. It could be greek life or intramurals or both. My closest friends are in my sorority and those I play sports with in the gym. I think sororities and frats are very important and bring a huge asset to our community.

Activities at NCSU are what make this university awesome. I love my sorority and have met so many people through Sigma Kappa and other Greek organizations. I actually met my boyfriend through a sorority sister. You can find someone to party with you every night of the week, it just depends on who has tests. There are always service activities and awesome speakers/workshops available through our CSLEPS office.

Anyone is going to say that their organization is the best, if they didn't then I would advise them to find an organization they are actually passionate about. I am lucky enough to be part of the Greek community. In my opinion the Greek community is the best community to be a part of because it is like being part of a large family. Though we are all members of our individual sorority/fraternity we are united by our pride in being Greek.

Balance is key. Do the work they assign while worshiping the Lord.

The most popular are WISE, Cheerleading, Football, and Basketball. Cheerleading is year round b/c we cheer for football and basketball. We practice 3 times a week and workout twice a week. No students don't leave their dorm rooms open.Athletic events are sooooo popular. The others are not so much. Dating seen is good I guess. I met them through classes taken together and Wise. I would be studying at 2am and thats it. People party all the time. Fraternities/sororities are really important. Last weekend I studied and visted my g-ma ans hung out w/ my boyfriend.On a Sat. night you can go to the movies, shopping, out to eat, nonalcoholic parties. I go home when off campus.

I work for the Union Activities Board at NC State. This is the main programming group on campus. We have many different committies from Leisure and Entertainment, Issues and Ideas, Black Students Board, Diversity, Films, International Activities Council and Publicy, that work towards having fun and educational events on campus for students to enjoy. We bring a wide range of events from Concerts, comedians, speakers, international shows, movies and other activities. It has been a great way to get involved with the campus and reach out to students.

Fraternity and Sorority's are pretty big on campus. Its hard to say which because there are so many. Being involved with Mu Beta Psi I tend to deal mainly with the Music Department. We do the set ups and strikes at most of the concerts that are held on campus. It depends on what dorm your in as to who leaves their doors open. Athletic events are poplular, if we're doing well. I'm pretty sure the guest speakers are popular and so are the theatre productions. Um..the dating scene...you have to get out and meet people. I met my boyfriend in my first (ever) college class, and we've been dating ever since. If I were awake at 2am on a Tueday, then I'm most likely cramming for a test.

The most popular groups on campus are Greek Life, Honor Societies, Student Government, and religious organizations. For instance I run one of the largest honor societies on campus--we do charity work for the community. Most students in the dorms leave their doors open so that they and their neighbors may interact. Athletic events are immensely popular, while guest speakers have a smaller crowd. While theatre is certainly not unheard of here, it isn't very popular amongst students. I met my closest friends in the classes I was in. If I am awake at 2 a.m. on a Tuesday, I am most likely doing homework and/or goofing off with my suitemates. The biggest traditions here are probably Campout for tickets to the UNC game each year (as they are our greatest rivals), along with the Homecoming celebrations. The frequency of parties depends on where you are at on campus, and varies greatly. Fraternities and sororities aren't that important here. Most people here don't really drink on their saturday nights, so your possibilities are endless. Off campus, I eat.

I don't there is a most popular group or organization. It mainly depends on you and what you are interested in. I am in a social sorority (Chi Omega) in whcih we mainly interact only with fraternities. I am in an academic fraternity that revolves around community service. I dont think so. Football and basketball are the most popular events on campus. Most people are already attached. Through my organizations. talking to my roommate. Homecoming competition, Greek Week, Derby Days. Pretty much every day of the week. Not too important if you arne't part of a greek organization. Nothing. See a movie. Shop, eat, see movies.

campus crusades and frats and sororities im involved in a sority and i love it.

i am involved with a sorority here on campus. it is something that i joined when i was a sophomore as a freshman. i think at ncsu greek life has been stigmatized into something that is horrible but in reality those that are involved with greek life have given more back to the community than your average college student. as for the dorms, i haven't lived in a dorm since my freshman year and even then i didn't live in your typical dorm. we did not leave our doors open because i lived at avent ferry so if our door was open, it was open to the outside and a complete stranger from the street could walk into our room unannounced. i feel that athletic events are extremely popular at ncsu, especially when the teams are doing well. i've met my closest friends through living in the dorm my freshman year as well as through my sorority. one of my closest friends is still my roommate from freshman year who did not join a sorority and we are still just as close as we were freshman year.

There are a lot of sports teams and not a huge amount, but an ok sized greek life. I'm involved in a sorority. Students leave their doors open all the time. Athletic events like football and basketball are really popular, but others are attended as well. I met my closest friends in my dorm and through my sorority. Probably studying or hooked on some random tv show. There are different traditions around sporting events like the ram roast and homecoming. People's partying habits very, some every night, some just weekends, and some never or rarely. Greek life isn't that important around campus compared to its prevalence on some campuses. Went home. There's plenty of stuff to do around campus, there's movies, dinner, downtown, etc. Downtown is really fun.

Sororities and Fraternities are big on campus. I am involved with the Chi Omega sorority and it is amazing, they help keep your grades in check and still be able to go out with your friends/"sisters". I've noticed that people that live in a suite style dorm they leave their doors unlocked for short amounts of time. People that live in hall style dorms they lock their dorms everytime they leave their room. Basketball and football are big. My closest friends are my roomate, Chi O sisters, and people that i knew prior to college. My boyfriend i met before college as well but i know the dating scene is big and very open. I am normally awake at 2 am every morning and i am normally out with a few friends. Before big games we have pep rallies like before state plays unc. People party at least on the weekends. Last weekend i stayed with my boyfriend and went out to a few parties. I eat off campus and travel.

Since the school is so big, the social life is great. Whatever your crowd is, you can definitely find here. If you like partying there are lots of parties. If you like to play video games there are lots of LAN parties. The list could go on. The guy to girl population is about 50/50.

There are tons to things to get involved in! Right now i am a sister in Chi Omega and in the Student Wolfpack club. Most people on my hall in my dorm leave there doors cracked. If somethings going on (usually there is) we always go out into the hall to socialize. If i am awake at 2 am its usually because my roommate is keeping me awake. Which tends to happen alot! Last weekend i attended one of my dorms events. Because i live in a private dorm they hold events and parties usually once a month and this past weekend i attended their casino night.

I am in Chi Omega. Being a part of a sorority has greatly improved my college experience. It is not just social. It has played a role in encouraging scholarship and involvement in my community through service. I believe I am more well rounded as a result of my experience with the sorority.

I think the most popular organizations on campus are: Greek Life and Campus Crusade. I am invovled with a sorority and I am thrilled with the support of Greek Life at the moment. Even non-greeks are getting involved with Greek Life and helping memebers with their phillanthropies. I met my closest friends through my sorority and get excited each year for Greek Week and other panhellenic events.

The most popular groups are the athletics teams, greek life and then various major based organizations. It depends on how social the student is if they leave their door open or not. Major athletic events, ie. football, basketball, and baseball, are very popular, the smaller sports...not so much. Guest speakers and theater are not very popular. I met my closest friends through who I roomed with my freshman and sophomore year but I feel that my friends from home are more my best friends than anybody I've met at college. If I'm awake at 2am on Tuesday, I'm either studying, with my boyfriend, or playing on facebook. There are traditions such as Ram Roast before the Carolina games, parents' weekend, homecoming, dance marathon, and others. You can always find a group partying at least every weekend. Greek life is popular but it is not a huge thing on campus. Last weekend I studied and played in a catch phrase tournament. On Saturday nights you can go to the movies, hang out with friends, play catch phrase, ha, go bowling or ice skating.

The most popular groups would probably have to be greek life and sports. Athletic events are very popular, and would probably be more so if our teams were better. Basketball and football are the main games to go to, but there's also baseball, softball, soccer, etc.

we have sororities and fraternities but i think only about 13{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of students are in them. but there are hundreds of clubs and teams to be on. intramurals are really fun and easy to get into. football and basketball games are very popular, but we also like to support the "non-revenue raising" teams. i went to every swim meet this season. there are more guys here because of engineering and agriculture so the odds are in my favor. its easy to date here. lots of events going on and fun restaurants in walking distance on hillsborough street. most students do leave their doors open in the dorms. 2am on a tues. im either drinking, watching a movie with a date, on facebook, or finishing up homework.

Intermurals (basketball, softball, football, bowling)

I joined an archery club that was just resurrected. Apparently it was pretty big and successful back in the glory days. We may get it going again, and we may not. I think that's typical of most organizations - they're not as good as they used to be. The athletic events, guest speakers, and theater are usually pretty decent, though.

Student Wolfpack Club, Greek Life. I am involved with a sorority. yes and no. Athletic events are what students live for. I met my closest friends from my sorority. Homework. Pac-a-thon, parents weekend, unc game. People generally part Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Greek Life is not as big on State's campus as it is on other campuses, but with the formation of new greek court and other marketing tools it will get better. Last weekend I went out one night and stayed in the next to catch up on hw. Movie and dinner?

I spend most of my time in Student Government, working with students, faculty, and administration to determine what issues are prevelant within the community and what we can do to fix them. SG is not just people interested in politics, but people who are passionate about helping students and making NC State an even greater University. There is always a host of guest speaker and lecture opportunities on campus and in the surrounding community. As part of the Research Triangle Park and NC Capital city, NC State is able to draw tremendous intellectuals and leaders in numerous fields. These are generally free, or at least very low cost, for students to attend. As far as athletics is concerned, football, basketball and baseball are huge events for students. We have the privilege of a great tailgating lot for football and basketball events, which many people take advantage of. However, as part of the ACC, we also have many other tremendous athletic teams and many very competitive club sports opportunities. For athletic wins and other major accomplishments, we light our Belltower red for the night. There are always ample party opportunities off campus whether at fraternities/sororities, clubs or private apartments. However, there are also many opportunities for students which do not include partying or drinking. Residence hall staff almost always have weekend activities for students to participate in, there are theatre and music productions, an on-campus cinema and many other activities along the streets on either side of campus.

The most popular groups or organizations at NCSU would be the athletic teams, as the events are very popular. There is a Greek scene, but it is not overwhelming as the majority of students are not in sororities or fraternities. There are many cultural events and movies that popular at NCSU taking place in Witherspoon campus cinema. While you would have no problem finding a party on any given night, the most popular nights to go out are Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
