Get Involved Fair

On Wednesday, September 16th, and Thursday, September 17th, the clubs and organizations of Stockton University held the Get Involved Fair. Nearly every club and organization that Stockton has to offer filled the halls of A through J wing with tables of information. It was clear that each group involved in this event put hard work into providing information as well as a welcoming atmosphere. Each table had a wonderful presentation, gave students helpful information, and warmly invited students to join in their activities. The fair provided a great opportunity to learn about the variety of ways to get involved both on and off campus, meet new people, and serve in the community.

As I approached the table for Circle K, each member was eager to inform me about the club. They explained that Circle K is a service organization involved in the community in a variety of ways. I was very interested in serving the community, so they invited me to sign up for information and attend their meetings on Wednesday nights. Although I could not attend the meeting, they made sure that I receive all the information I need to get involved with Circle K.

Overall, the Get Involved Fair was very successful in getting students to get involved. The setup of the event was so informative, helpful, and welcoming that I found it almost impossible not to get involved in at least one club or organization. As a commuter, I find it hard to get involved, and often feel out of the loop. However, the Get Involved Fair completely changed this feeling. I now feel more involved in the University, and I am excited to be a part of and contribute to the community.
