With the academic year wrapping up, the fun on campus is still not over.

Looking for the best things to do on campus this summer? Look no further. 

There is nothing like when campus is blooming with life and beautiful green in early June. Take a walk around campus and have a nice picnic in the oval. Perhaps you want to find new buildings that you have never seen before in those corners of campus that you seldom visit. You will be amazed just how much campus has to offer when you go on your own adventure. 

Be amazed at the little things and visit the CSU Bug Zoo in E-007 for a look into the finite parts of this world and how we can all work together to enhance our own ecosystem. 

For nature lovers, it is always great to see the progress of the CSU arboretum where you can step foot into a lush area of campus. Every year, the arboretum becomes more developed and more beautiful. 

Summertime is a wonderful season to stay in shape and have fun as well. Bring a team and play on the sand volleyball courts, or hone your skills on the basketball courts, bringing back memories of your athletic high school excellence. 

Look forward to attending great performances at the University Center for the Arts and see for yourself just how talented our Rams are. Within this center, be sure to make time and see the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art and the Avenir Museum of Design and Merchandising. 

There are so many wonderful things to do on campus, but most importantly, get outside and enjoy our beautiful University. Summer time feels like home in Fort Collins, so make the most of the time that you have and find something new, something interesting, and something that makes you proud.

There are numerous ways that you can give back to your community as well. Starting on Tuesday, August 2 School Is Cool 2022 is an event when Rams of all generations to benefit the community. Their goal is to provide over 3,000 backpacks filled with essentials and goods. For more information, visit https://schooliscool.colostate.edu/get-involved/.
