What kinds of activities can I expect at Harcum?

The Office of Campus Activities works closely with the Campus Activities Programming Board, a campus-wide group that plans events, programs, and trips. Our office is responsible for Welcome Back days, trips to the theatre, workshops and speakers, museum visits, Spring Fling, movie nights, and other fun and exciting events! The Office of Campus Activities is also responsible for annual events such as Family Day, Black History Month, Orientation Programs, and much more.

A calendar is published at the beginning of each semester with all of the events and programs for the semester. Also, reminders and new event announcements will be posted around campus on designated Campus Activity bulletin boards or outside the office on the 2nd floor of Klein Hall.
