What is Friday Social Group?

Friday Social Group is a fun and relaxed gathering!

TU students and Hussman Center participants get together and have a good time playing games, doing theme-based activities, or just hanging out and getting to know each other.

We offer 7 Social Groups on Fridays during the fall and spring semesters. Social Groups are announced via email, and participants register to attend using SignUp Genius.

*You must be 18 or older to participate in Social Groups*

How do I get Friday Social Group email announcements?

If you don't already receive social group emails, please email us at hcaa AT_TOWSON and request to be added to the distribution list, or sign up to receive the emails.

When does Friday Social Group meet?

Friday Social Groups only occur during Fall & Spring Semesters.

Social group takes place at the Hussman Center and will occur from 5:30-7:30 p.m. this Fall.

Those who have attended social in the past will be familiar with this process. Social Group email announcements are sent by 4 p.m. on Fridays, a week prior to when a social group is scheduled. The first 35 people who enter their name on the sign up are automatically accepted into the group and are expected to complete the $15 payment online by Wednesday afternoons at 4 p.m. If the fee is different as noted below in the "What can I expect" section, that will be shared in the sign-up email. In addition to the payment a Social group visitor form is required to be completed. You should receive an automatic email from Sign-Up genius reminding you to complete the payment and visitor form process. If your ability to attend changes, please contact us at so that we can make room for another individual.
