At MUW there’s no shortage of learning and recreational activities to experience, and that’s not even the best part. What separates MUW from other universities is how easy we make it for students to get involved.
There's always something to do
MUW is a perfectly-sized institution that provides real opportunities to every student. There are over 75 student clubs & organizations filled with open minds who are excited to have you onboard. Add to that the films, plays, concerts, art exhibits, and nationally-recognized speakers that fill the calendar weekly and you'll have to make sure to set time aside to study.
You won't feel like a newbie for long
Even when you’re new to campus, you won't feel like a newbie for long. Students and MUW staff introduce themselves right away and will want to get to know you. Before long, you'll feel as comfortable as if your were at home.
Campus Recreation
Aquatics, intramurals, wellness, special events...

Life in the Friendly City
The Friendly City, that's Columbus' motto. It's one that you definitely feel as your drive down Main Street and when you come on campus. The city is also steeped in history. It's the birthplace of Tennessee Williams for one. His house is a historic landmark. For buffs of architecture, the area is a virtual catalog of American building styles from the 1820's to the 1900's.
If history or architecture aren't quite your thing, there's hiking, boating, fishing, bird watching, biking, you name it, on and along the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. And if you're a shopper, there are some wonderful unique boutiques that are at the heart of Main Street, home to some fun and delicious restaurants as well.
Taste Columbus
If great food is a measure of a great place, then Columbus is the ticket. From home cooking to Americana cuisine, to bar food to steaks, seafood, and fine dining, the city has something that will appeal to your stomach. Barbecue, Thai, Chinese, Mexican, and fast food, of course! For the sweet tooth there're donuts, coffee, ice cream, and frozen yogurt.
