Welcome Week

Residence Hall Activities

Your residence hall is much more than a place to live. It also sponsors activities throughout the academic year, on campus and off, that will get you involved, entertain you, broaden your knowledge and horizons, and help you build friendships with your neighbors.

Those activities begin during Welcome Week, with events like sports tournaments, museum trips, and cookouts.

You can learn more about your residence hall and other aspects of living at IU from Residential Programs and Services.
