Social Life at BAU
BAU is located right at the political and cultural center of the nation’s capital, just two blocks from the White House. Centrally located, BAU students are able to travel to and have access to all of the wonderful attraction the city and area have to offer. The Director of Student Services organizes and announces events, field trips, and excursions for students. Students keep up with all of the activities offered on BAU’s website and student bulletin boards on campus.
We understand students have different needs and interests, so we have various activities, events, and clubs available, including sporting, theater, and concert events, museum visits, book club, cooking club, volunteer work, social hours, holiday parties/potlucks, and many more!
Student Organizations
Student Organizations make up a vibrant part of BAU’s intercultural campus life. Our students have the opportunity to organize and participate in student-run organizations and clubs that reflect the diversity of their interests. Current organizations and clubs include the Student Government Association (SGA), film and book, music, soccer, podcast, and others. Through these organizations and clubs, students can advance their personal and professional goals and socialize with others in the university community. Institutional funds for organizations and clubs are distributed through the SGA. Clubs gather at the Student Union on the 3rd floor.
Students who wish to reserve the Student Union for a specific day and time must do so through OIS (Operational Information System) using their username and passwords.
Field Trips
Bay Atlantic University offers many opportunities to travel in the DC area and beyond. Not only does being in the heart of DC come with it’s own network of Government Agencies, Landmarks, Parks, Museums, and much more; but DC is also just a bus or train ride from many surrounding states including Maryland, Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, West Virginia, and others.
Social Activities
At Bay Atlantic University, we believe that learning doesn’t just from the classroom, but also from the array of students you will get to meet and spend time with. BAU promotes many social activities between many of the students to make lifelong friends, and open up conversations to spur personal growth.
Events
In addition to our field trips and social events to grow culturally and socially, BAU also promotes many events to encourage a healthy lifestyle, try out new hobbies, and learn some new skills. Trying new things and getting active in the community is a great way to to not just explore the many locations, but also explore yourself and your interests a little.
