School clubs: How and why you should start one

Starting a club at school is easy, and if you don’t feel like starting one, there’s plenty around to join. Every school year will have at least a couple days where clubs set up booths in front of the book store (in F building near the information booth), and this is a great opportunity to get signatures for a club or join one.

Finding a club for your preferred hobby or passion first means identifying what either of those are. Some clubs are more consistent, such as the board games club, which meets every so often to try new games and discuss them. There’s a club for video gamers, and they even have their own Facebook group if you search for it. A club is a great way to meet fellow students who share common interests, and it opens up the possibility to rent out rooms in study locations for meetings. You can find these meeting rooms throughout the library and various computer labs.

Interested? Starting up only takes minimal effort. Log onto the FSU website and print off the club form where you list your membership and other information. Read over the rules and policies as the school has certain limits to what can and can’t be formed. Good luck!
