Life at Lander University doesn't rest solely within the classroom walls. It’s what you do outside of class – experiencing the natural wonders of our state on campus rec trips, attending a concert or comedy event, making friends in a student organization, and enjoying dinner with suitemates in the dining hall – that makes the ordinary college experience extraordinary.
Housing & Residence Life
With residence halls ranging from suites to contemporary apartment-style floor plans, there is a wide variety of housing options available at Lander University. Living on campus puts you right in the center of all the action—just steps away from classes, recreation, dining and entertainment.
Student Activities
Your time at Lander will be among some of the best—and most fun—years of your life. The Office of Student Activities works each year to schedule performances, field trips and special events that allow our students to experience the richness and diversity of campus life.
Clubs & Organizations / Greek Life
Getting involved in one of our 60+ student clubs and organizations is a great way to meet others with similar interests or hang out with friends while having fun. Service and spirit organizations, academic and honor societies, Greek life, student media, and performing arts—Lander has it all.
Campus Rec / Fitness Center
Keeping fit while having fun is easy with the numerous activities—and excellent facilities—offered by the Department of Campus Recreation & Intramurals.
Food & Dining
Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty meal or a quick snack on the run, Lander’s Food Services will satisfy any appetite. There are five eateries on campus, including Which Wich, Twisted Taco, Starbucks, Dining Hall and the POD Express.
