On-Campus Events
Whoever said college was all work and no play? Certainly nobody at 皇家华人 Fox! Our Student Involvement team, headed up by students, hosts an on-campus event for students every weekend, so there’s never a shortage of things to do!
Here are just a few of the regular events that make campus life at Fox such a blast:
Lip Sync
Get your group together, plan your moves and music, and perform in front of your friends. The house is packed every year, and the winners get $500.
Sadie Hawkins Dance
Board a giant boat with your friends and dance the night away as you cruise the Willamette River.

Game Night
Hang out in the Hadlock Student Center and play games! We've got video games, board games, and plenty of food.
Intramurals and Fitness
Got game? We’ve got the place for you. Our Hadlock Student Center hosts intramurals in everything from volleyball and basketball to dodgeball and badminton. And with all the group fitness classes we offer, you’re sure to stay in shape! Oh, and did we mention we have a pretty awesome rock-climbing wall?
Concerts and Theatre Productions
Celebrate the arts! Attend a concert in Bauman to support our student and faculty musicians, and be sure to check out theatre productions in Wood-Mar Auditorium.
Loudest Dance You've Never Heard
You'll be handed some synchronized headphones as you squeeze into the library for a silent dance! Take your headphones off and have a laugh watching people around you sing without the music.
Campus Campout
As a sophomore, you'll gather a group of friends and camp out in the quad the night before Juniors Abroad registration. Plenty of shenanigans will unfold.
And this is only the beginning. Hundreds of athletic events, theatre performances and student concerts take place throughout the year. At 皇家华人 Fox, boredom is not an option!

Alice Marchuk, Class of 2021
I’ve worked with Student Activities for two years now, and it has completely changed the course of my college experience. I’ve really loved helping plan crazy events (up to 15 a semester!) and market them to the school, which is valuable experience for a future career.
