Student Life
You don’t have to be a performing arts major to sing, dance, act, play a musical instrument, work behind the scenes, attend a gallery opening, or broadcast the news! Students from across all disciplines participate in the arts at Ohio Northern.
In addition to performing arts activities, students participate in professional organizations available in their academic interests, multicultural groups, intramural and club sports, cheerleading and dance team.
There is an active religious life on campus with such organizations as: Habitat for Humanity, Northern Christian Fellowship, Gospel Ensemble, Chapel Band and Choir, and Newman Club.
Approximately 20% of ONU’s student body participates in Greek Life. There are six national fraternities and four national sororities. Service and philanthropy are core values of these Greek organizations which are governed by the Interfraternity Council (IFC) and Panhellenic Council (Panhel).
Feel like staying in? You can take a quick study break and order in a pizza or gather with friends around one of the 50” flat screen TVs in the hall lounges for popcorn and a movie. See Residence Life for more information.
Interested in free campus entertainment? Our SPC (Student Planning Committee) has fun, free events scheduled nearly every weekend. Enjoy an event or become a member and meet new friends.
