I have a problem. A serious problem. I agree to do too much. For example, I went to the activities fair with some of the freshmen I mentor in the business school. When we got there I said to myself ‘Don’t join anything else. You already have too much on your plate.’ Of course by the time I was able to pull myself away I had already signed up for four new activities.
There are so many awesome things to do when you’re in college that it is hard to narrow it down if you’re like me. But how does one get to be so thoroughly involved that you can’t walk anywhere without seeing friends from all different clubs?
Sign up. This is pretty self evident but the most effective way to go about getting involved. Although it can be intimidating to walk up to a table at the activities fair, just remember that they want new members! If you’re looking to get more involved later in the semester then check out the list of organizations on your school’s site and shoot an email over to the contact person asking when meetings are and what you need to do to become a member.
