Student Life
At Hobart and William Smith, you’re welcomed into a vibrant, residential campus community. On any given day, you can attend a thought-provoking guest lecture; compete in varsity, club or intramural sports; experience a production in the Gearan Center for the Performing Arts; find a quiet study space in the library or Blackwell Room; head to the Quad to play Ultimate Frisbee; or map out plans for an internship, research project or study abroad.
Campus life is shaped and reshaped by students’ collective passions and pursuits as they prepare for what awaits them after graduation. You might embrace an existing student group or you might inspire others by launching your own club or theme house. No matter how you’ll define your HWS experience, it all starts on our beautiful lakeside campus.
