Our school has several coed sports teams but since our campus doesn't have a sports facility the large majority of student involvement is in the various activist groups. Our school has a Human Equality and Rights Everywhere (H.E.R.E.) club, Achieving Community Transformation (ACT) which does community outreach volunteering, Health Educators Reaching Out (HERO), sustainability organization, and Bothell Speaks Out which rallies against cuts to education to name a few. Since the campus is smaller it is easier to reach students in the major flux areas and rally support for the various clubs. I am personally involved with HERE, ACT, Bothell Speaks Out, and coed dodge-ball. So far this quarter ACT has done a Toys for Tots drive, helped raise funds for the Camp Korey Alternative Spring Break program which provides free week long camps for disabled children, organized an AIDS awareness march, and assisted with Make a Difference Day which aided the city of Bothell with ecological restoration efforts. Student housing was very limited in previous years but this year they added several hundred beds by buying out neighboring apartment buildings and converting them into "husky village" dorms. Although I don't personally live on campus the Husky Village residents seem to reflect the very communal and friendly demeanor of the on campus activities. With the lack of athletics there is plenty of campus events each week ranging from open mic nights, to bingo, to free fitness classes, to video game and movie nights. Meeting friends and potential relationship prospects is quite easy if one is willing to talk with fellow classmates and people they see in the major flux areas. I have meet my closest friends through class discussions or from simply joining groups of people in student hang out areas who were discussing something I was interested in. Since the campus is small and close knit it is easy to meet up with people on a daily basis and build close friendships. The yearly traditions and events include convocation for new and returning students, husky adventures for incoming freshman, multicultural nights, recognitions of alcohol awareness week, AIDS week, etc... The party crowd usually goes down to the Seattle campus Greek row on the weekends since the Bothell campus only has one set of dorms. While there still is the inevitable presence of alcohol, the husky village residents typically have several friends over to play video games, watch movies, or just talk. Downtown Bothell closes pretty early as well so there isn't a "night life" outside of the dorms which can be good or bad depending on ones personality.
