Beloiters have a wide array of interests outside the classroom. Dungeons & Dragons. Art. Ultimate frisbee. Planning concerts and campus events. Yoga. If you like it, chances are good that you’ll find someone else who does, too. Beloit currently offers over 45 clubs and organizations, and if they don’t have what you’re looking for, you and your friends can create your own.

Many Beloiters choose to live part of their time here in special interest housing. Many of these groups are located in their own old house and accommodate between four and 20 students.

Another popular option is to join a sorority or fraternity on campus. We have two sororities and three fraternities, all of which have a distinct vibe and their own house. None of them are anything like what you’ve seen in the movies.
