Blog #3 Get Involved Fair

On Wednesday September 16th, in Wings B-I the Get Involved Fair took place. I was very excited for this event because I couldn’t wait to join clubs. I was overwhelmed by the amount of clubs that were represented there. The whole academic buildings were lined with tables and representatives of the clubs trying to get new students to join their club. As I walked through, I was interested in many clubs and ended up joining five. One thing I enjoyed was that there was a lot of freebies like candy, pens, and id holders! I was so excited because I never was in any club or organizations in high school because I played basketball and dedicated all my time to it. The Get Involved Fair was especially helpful to freshman because it helps them adjust to the college life and helps them know how to get involved on campus. The good things about the clubs are that there are ones that relate to almost every major and there are fun ones like S.E.T. and Stockton’s Disney Association. I joined the Occupational Therapy Club, Health Sciences Club, the Stockton Entertainment Team (S.E.T.), Stockton’s Disney Association, and Public Health Club. So far I have gone to all the meetings for each club except for Public Health Club, and I have enjoyed every one of them. I even helped out at the comedy show, which featured Carly Aquilino, on Friday October 9th, for University Weekend. This event was run by S.E.T. which is a fun club and I would recommend anyone to join it. Overall I am glad that the Get Involved Fair was available to students because I wouldn’t know how to join the clubs if it wasn’t available.
