Activities
The range of activities at W&L is limited only by our students' imaginations. As a result, the weekly calendar of events is full of performances and lectures, athletic contests and organizational meetings, exhibits and intramural sports. With more than 150 officially chartered clubs and organizations, students can expand their existing interests or explore something brand new. You can even start your own club with others who share your interests.
With about 1,860 talented and engaged students, you’re sure to find someone at W&L who shares your passions.
