Clubs rush has come and gone to display a number of prominent groups vying for members just outside the lunchroom.
Booths for almost any kind of club were propped up and filled with treats to get students to stop by and sign up for their activities. From a casual fitness club, the Pride alliance, Christian alliance, two veterans clubs and medical profession clubs.
The fitness club is named ‘Progress, not perfection’ that offer heads up on activities in the HEC building and gives people support for trying to go into fitness from any level. As the name suggests, it’s more about finding a comfortable progression instead of trying to be bodybuilders.
There are two veteran focused clubs, though they act differently. Veteran’s Club was started from a local standpoint and offers a good deal of local information. Student veterans of America appeared as a chapter of a national organization. It comes down to preference and comfort.
The Pride Alliance isn’t just for people who consider themselves any of the sexuality the club represents, but it covers anyone who supports their freedom and right to be who whey are. It’s a place to get information and show support even if someone considers themselves heterosexual.
Archery club was another club that decked out their booth on the second day, offering students a chance to try the sport out without any pressure. A starter bow, vice president Kristofer said, runs around 40 dollars and comes with two arrows. The club says that’s enough for anything they do in their proposed bi-monthly.
There’s also international club, having the same principles as the Pride Alliance. You don’t have to be non-American to sign up and support the club. International club also hosts the Halloween costume dance, so showing your support to one will help the other.
Medical club made an early appearance on the first day, sporting stethoscopes and model skulls as well as a meeting place for the aspiring medical practitioners. They offer a place to meet for anything from nursing to surgeon as well as information on furthering education at four-year schools.
Criminal justice acts as a heaven for those wishing to get into that field, giving people a chance to do mock crash events. They’re to meet weekly and to contact members via E-mail.
This quarter, it looks like there’s a club for anyone. Be it a club for a major, for sport, or for lifestyle. For a full list of clubs and their pictures, the website will host the full collection.
