Learn folk or Latin dancing or Chinese hip-hop. Singing more your thing? Whitman has three a capella clubs. Or for fun and friendship, join a group devoted to cooking, board games, video games, archery, anime, and more! Or start like your own club—like many Whitties before you.
Plus: Hike, climb, kayak, etc. ... and make friends over the campfire by participating in our award-winning Outdoor Program. Or did we mention our fun and competitive Club Sports.
