Rowan Campus Rec

Coming to college can be a difficult transition. New classes, new routines, and a new community can build onto the pressure that students already feel from being socially insecure. Forming connections between peers and your campus can help dwindle these stresses and create a calm, supportive environment to grow into your future.

One of our most popular unique clubs is Rowan University Equestrian! Beginning in 2012, the Rowan University Equestrian Team (RUET) offers a competitive and fun window into the world of horseback riding and the entire Equestrian field.
