Student Activities at Hunter College
by Jerrell Robinson, Assistant Director of Student Activities
At Hunter College, you are more than a student attending classes, writing papers, and preparing for exams. Participating in athletics and student organizations can be an integral part of your Hunter education.
Co-curricular activities are fun and enrich both the college experience and the post-graduation résumé. Student government, intercollegiate athletics, intramural sports and recreation, publications, clubs, and theatrical productions are some of the activities available at Hunter to meet nearly every interest.
A directory of club locations is available on the Student Activities web site, in the Undergraduate Student Government office (121 N) and in the Office of the Dean of Students, Room 1103, East Building.

Athletics, Intramurals & Recreation – A Great Way to Connect!
Rita Tolan, Hunter ‘05
A great way to become part of the Hunter Community is to become involved with the Athletics, Intramural, and Recreation program. As a former student athlete and a current Hunter graduate student and Assistant Swim Coach, it is easy for me to call Hunter home. I made lifelong friends through the program and there are many ways you can have a similar experience.
Our Recreation and Intramural programs are open to all Hunter students and include use of the excellent facilities (pool, weight room, racquetball courts, and more) and classes such as aerobics, yoga, and martial arts. Previous intramural events have included flag football, soccer, basketball, and the mile swim.
Joining a Hunter Athletic team is another way to connect with the Hunter Community. To be eligible, you need to be a full-time matriculated student (12 or more credits), and maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0. Hunter has 18 teams including Volleyball, Tennis, Cross Country, Basketball, Fencing, Track and Field, Soccer, Wrestling, Swimming, and Softball.
And finally, get a group of Hunter students together to come out and cheer on your fellow Hunter Hawks! The schedules for each team and full information about the Athletics, Intramurals and Recreation program can be found on our web site. (http://www.hunter.cuny.edu/athletics/) See you at the game!
