Sports & Recreation Initiative

Sports and Recreation is not so much a club as it is an initiative on the part of the Collins Student Government to provide students with even more ways to get involved around campus.

If you have any interest in playing intramural sports during the spring semester, please contact the Director of Sports & Recreation at Collins.

Hello, I'm Zach and I'm a Junior studying Media Cultures and Technologies. I've been a member of the Collins LLC my whole time here at IU. Outside of my major and involvement with Collins I enjoy rock climbing, archery, and almost anything active. I also love playing video games, watching movies, and writing. I look forward to working with the members of the Collins LLC and hope to be able to continue to do so in my final year!
