Around Town

The End, an organization you can join on campus, usually brings in comedians and other reputable performers on a regular basis. My first semester, DNCE came and performed and it was amazing! There are emails that go out on a regular basis with regard to campus events. It is very hard to be bored here.

They have big name concerts brought in which is impressive. TCU always seems to be doing something.

There is always something going on on campus. Student activities and programs bring fun and exciting things to do. For example, Jason Derullo and other stars have come along with "pet a sloth day."

TCU football games are always a blast! I have gone to some myself. All TCU athletic events seem to be a lot of fun and really embrace the spirit of TCU. The Fort Worth museum district is very nice, surrounded by the zoo and botanical gardens, you can have a nice, quiet day compared to a football game. Fort Worth has walking trails along the Trinity River that are beautiful and well-kept. Downtown Fort Worth is always bustling and there is always something to do, or good food to eat.

If you like country dancing, go to Billy Bob's. If you like classical music, Bass Hall offers student tickets for $10, and that can be pretty enjoyable. If you join Greek life, there will be lots of parties, although the Greek parties are really just a place to drink and hook up and normally aren't any fun, in my opinion. But I mean if you like drinking, there's that option. They show movies in the auditorium on Saturdays, and our improv team does a free show every Thursday, and that's pretty fun. Sometimes there are concerts or comedians, and there are lots of clubs you can get involved in.

There is always something going on here. Our student organizations do an incredible job of bringing fun things to campus. We've had petting zoos, concerts, bouncy castles, hamster balls, pumpkin smashing, study abroad fairs, and a Harry Potter themed party, just to name a few. It's nearly impossible to be bored.

You are in Fort Worth! The city is full of museums, art, cowboy hisrtory! Even the stockyards alone can entertain you for a month, easy. And, you are only short distance from downtown Dallas, where club life and sporting events are easy pickings.

Go watch a Horned Frogs football game!

If you have a car, which most students do, you can go into Fort Worth or Dallas and there's tons of fun stuff to do

Depending on what your idea of fun is, you'll be able to find it in Fort Worth. The area is known for excellent restaurants and a new, beautiful downtown, but it also has an old town - the stockyards. There, you'll find Billy Bob's a fun place for college kids to go dance and learn to two step. Of course, Fort Worth is just a hop, skip and a jump away from Dallas as well where you can get your fill of concerts, professional sports games, and whatever else you can imagine.
