Greenville College is a big community that always has something going on. Whether it would be sports or student ran events, there are many opportunities to interact with everyone on campus. One of the major conflicts with this is ‘getting in the know’ and never getting to hear what is happening at Greenville. There are many resources out there that Greenville College provides! Check this out and get connected!

Let’s talk media, social media that is. Most of us have some form of it whether it would be Facebook or Twitter, Yik Yak…whatever. Facebook has been a great way to stay informed for students as well as anyone who is interested in Greenville College. Most pages include athletic pages, student organizations as well as informative pages. Most, if not all, associations are on Facebook. If you haven’t already, go and give them a ‘like’! Personally my favorite is Greenville College Memes.

Listed below are some resources that are always current and up-to-date on Facebook:

Greenville College (Official Facebook)

Greenville College Alumni Association

GCSA: Greenville College Student Associatio n

Greenville College Vespers

Greenville College Chapel

If you don’t want a lot of updates on your Facebook popping up, the alternative is Twitter. This way you get brief updates from the same pages or even more specific groups. The Digital Media department always has updates on what is going around in that department and also showcases students works. I enjoy Twitter for GC updates, and on occasion they can favorite your tweets! If you want to have some sweet updates on campus activities, Twitter is the place to go for alternative social media!

Have Twitter? Follow these pages, make sure you use #gcUpdates to show your love for this article!

The athletic department is one of the top establishments for Greenville College. Athletes make up for a good amount of students attending Greenville. That being said, there are a lot of teams that are represented here. From volleyball to baseball, and even to cross-country, they are all connected!
