The Sage Community

Learning happens everywhere. The Office of Student Life provides programs, services and opportunities for you to get involved in activities outside the classroom — from working on The Rev, our literary magazine, to playing varsity sports or intramural ultimate frisbee. We’re involved in many aspects of your college life: housing and dining, exercising and competing, clubs and organizations, leadership and teamwork, activities and events and campus traditions. In other words, we complete your college experience.
