Homecoming Pep Rally/Bonfire:
STAT plays a large role in the planning and organization of Homecoming weekend. As a key sponsor, STAT's main focus is to promote pride in the Ithaca College family. The festivities include a pep rally celebrating athletics, a bon fire, giveaways, and live music. The festivities are broadcasted on WICB 91.7 FM, the College's primary radio station.
Spirit Night:
STAT is in charge of spearheading Spirit Night, an event that takes place during Homecoming week and helps incoming freshmen develop school and class pride. Students hear the Ithaca College story, learn the alma mater and fight song from Ithacapella, and sign their class banner. Each student receives a fun giveaway and is entered to win a prize, such as an iPod!
Homecoming Alumni Tent:
Before the Homecoming football game, alumni, students and friends are invited to stop by the Alumni Tent in front of the football stadium. Members of STAT will be there to welcome and greet alumni, students, and visitors, as well as host fun activities for kids and sell t-shirts.
Little Sibs Weekend:
One of the most popular annual events on campus is Little Sibs Weekend. Ithaca College students bring their siblings (ages 10-18) to Ithaca for a fun-filled weekend featuring a movie, arts and crafts, an ice cream social, and other fun activities.

Volunteer Activities:
Every semester, members of STAT get together to work on a volunteer project in the Ithaca area. Activities have included raking and cleaning up the grounds at local elementary schools (as part of Ithaca College's "Day of ServICe" in the spring), and working with Ithaca's Onsight Volunteer Services on various neighborhood housing improvement projects.
