University lifestyle

What they all find here is a tradition-rich and growing institution with a host of opportunities—from challenging academics, to over 300 clubs and organizations to extracurricular activities and volunteer and service projects. The Horseshoe is the University's picturesque center of campus, a gathering place for studying, sunbathing, or just relaxing. A few blocks from main campus, the University's unique research and innovation district, Innovista, is taking shape with two large facilities, the Horizon Center and Discovery Plaza.
