Student Organizations
Whatever your interests, SAGU has a student organization for you to broaden your knowledge base, understand other cultures, challenge yourself, expand your network of connections, develop leadership qualities, and HAVE FUN!
Events, Concerts, and more
Throughout the year we have awesome events – concerts, contests, athletics and intramurals.
Battle of the Dorms
One day a year, the dorms compete in the Battle of the Dorms – a healthy dose of competition, bonding and appreciation for your new home. The day includes Sand Volleyball games, races, dorm spirit and food to fuel the fun. In the end, everyone leaves with a similar sense of pride. The winning dorm takes home the prized, “Battle Vac” to display in their dorm.
Collinstock
Each year on the lawn in front of Collins Hall, students get together for music, comedy and snacks. A make-shift stage is built. Couches and blankets adorn the grass. And students enjoy an evening under the Texas stars supporting friends.
Homecoming
A week full of spirit, tradition, and SAGU lion pride. Homecoming gives students, faculty, staff and alumni, the opportunity to cheer on the home team, attend alumni awards ceremonies, tailgate, and participate in decorating the dorms. It’s a week to show off your Lion for Life mindset.
Christmas at SAGU
Imagine a campus decorated in strands of beautiful lights. Each year in November, we get together for pictures with Santa, hot chocolate, cookies, music, ornament decorating and the traditional “lighting of the lawn.”
Campus Days
Twice each year, the campus erupts with interested students. Campus days gives an opportunity to experience dorm living, Late Night Worship, Black Box Theater Sessions, campus tours and more.
