Around Town

There is a gym, there are theatres in town, there are a clubs. Basically, anything you want to do, this campus or this town can offer it to you.

There are a bunch of extracurricular activities that the students can be involved and a lot of other fun events that happen there everyday.

Were only an hour north of dallas/fort worth and ten minutes south of the oklahoma border, so there is always something to do that isn't too far away.

While Sherman is a small town, there are many activities offered on campus including workout classes, art classes, ping-pong, athletic events to support fellow Roo's, etc. There is also a movie theatre close by, bowling alleys, shopping centers, and bars for older students. Being only an hour away from Dallas, TX gives you a huge city close by as well!

There is a lot of things that are always going on on campus but, also around Sherman and Dallas.

Tons of clubs and activities everyday of the week. This ranges from bingo nights, movie nights and free bowling. There are always IM sports going on too for those who don't play varsity sports.

There's a park within 5 minutes walking distance. I go there sometimes to just play on the swings. It's child oriented, but I find it nice for just thinking and swinging. There are parties pretty much every week if you're into that. Oklahoma casinos are are about an hour away, or so I'm told. If you have a car, there are other fun places to travel to.

Honestly, the city in which this school is located doesn't have much going on. There isn't anything to do off campus but there is enough happening on campus to keep everyone satisfied. The Campus Activities Board puts on a ton of daily events- Zumba, bingo, or film screenings for example.

Students are constantly getting together to play games of capture the flag, ultimate frisbee, hide and seek, and lots of other things. Don't feel shy and miss out on all this because it's the best part of Austin College. There is also some kind of activity hosted by the school practically every weekend.
