Twenty NCAA Division III intercollegiate varsity athletic teams and intramural sports also offer provide additional leadership opportunities.

The Center for Global Citizenship -- which brings together activities related to international programs, service-learning and peacemaking -- offers opportunities for students to communicate with, live alongside, learn from and serve among people from diverse ethnic, linguistic and cultural settings. In addition, Student Directed Learning Communities provide students with a common interest in helping others an off-campus residence where they may live and serve together.
