Student Activities
Student Activities provides the foundation for all things fun at CTX. We encourage and assist students with getting involved with events, intramurals, student organizations, and outdoor recreation activities.
As students participate on and off-campus, they become more ingrained into the CTX community. They have the opportunity to enhance their leadership skills and establish meaningful connections, all while having fun!
