Recreation also serves as one of the larger employers of undergraduate students on campus. Positions are available as intramural staff members, fitness center attendants, climbing wall staff and outdoor trip leaders.
Club Sports
The university recognizes a variety of club sport teams which compete against other universities without the time commitment of an NCAA Division I team.
Teams are student-led and allow for leadership opportunities through elected positions including president, vice president and treasurer.
Each team typically announces its tryout process before or at the Quinnipiac Involvement Fair each fall.
