RIT ranks high in cool

RIT is a very cool place, according to College Bound magazine. RIT made the magazine’s list of “101 Cool Campus Activities” seven times – more than any other school.

RIT’s Mini-Baja team, shown here competing in Florida in April, is just one of many ways students keep their cool, College Bound says.

Here’s how RIT activities rate in the cool standings:
23. Wallace Library’s Soap Box, where students can speak out on issues.
25. WWE New York Club, where wrestling enthusiasts meet to watch their favorite sport.
53. Anime Club, which organizes weekly showings of Japanese animation and related events.
61. The ESPN Interactive Experience, featuring a SportsCenter desk where students act as commentators.
81. Electronic Gaming Society, where members can borrow popular game systems including Nintendo Game Cube, Sony Playstation 2, and Microsoft X-Box.
83. The Swing Dance Club, providing weekly lessons and organizing dances.
93. Mini-Baja and Formula race car teams.
