- UT has a number of IM leagues. These provide a great opportunity to have fun and meet new people. The Website for [[https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~gracs/wiki/index.cgi?RecSports|RecSports]] has a great deal of information, as well as a sign up schedule for IM leagues: http://www.utrecsports.org/. Since certain sports require that you find a team before you register, you may want to check whether others within the department are interested in creating a team.

+One of the best things about the University of Texas at Austin is Austin. It is a wonderful place to live with a tremendous number of things going on. Austin is perhaps best known for having great music and being home to UT and the state capital. Austinites enjoy a town that is big enough to offer a wide variety of things to do, but not so large as to suffer the problems of many big cities. You will have to explore Austin yourself, but no doubt you will be riding or jogging on the Town Lake hike and bike path, eating Amy's ice cream, drinking Shiner Bock beer and listening to music on Sixth Street before long. To get more information on what's happening in Austin, pick up one of the free weeklies, "The Austin Chronicle" ([[http://www.austinchronicle.com/]]) or "XL," available in most restaurants and coffee houses.
- Currently active IM teams within the department:
