How many clubs are you actually in?

<p>I'm involved in crew, and that's enough for me. </p>

<p>I'm trying to assess the "average" amount of clubs a college student is involved in. How many official* activities do you partake in without jeopardizing your academics?</p>

<p>*You actually devote your time and energy into, not something you'll plop on your r</p>

<p>I’m a paying member (meaning I get to participate in club events) of both the Circle K International Club and the Vet Aide Club at my school.</p>

<p>Just two. Coordinating intramural badminton, and soon-to-be on the school newspaper’s executive board. Even these two might be pushing it for what I can handle, but we’ll see.</p>

<p>In college, I’d say it’s highly unlikely to find a student with a laundry list of clubs like high schoolers like to put in chance threads.</p>

<p>I go to RUF every week. (Reformed University Fellowship-It’s a Christian group)</p>

<p>I also go to French Club every week and will be Vice President next year.</p>

<p>Other than that, I guess I’m not that active.</p>

<p>Sigma Alpha Iota (music fraternity, will be co-editor this coming year)
Psychology Club (was secretary for 2 years, but gave the position up)
Matins Choir (co-director, but this is more of a job than a club)
Kantorei (chapel choir, I assisted the section leader this year, and would probably be section leader of Kantorei next year if I go there instead of Chorale, which is the touring choir)</p>

<p>This past year I wasn’t involved in a lot, but I’m planning on joining more in the fall because I feel like I still have extra time.
I was in the Colleges Against Cancer club at my school (chair position next year, we organize Relay For Life on campus and other stuff). Also, I was a mentor for pregnant and parenting teens, but can’t continue next semester because of schedule conflicts. I loved it…so sad I have to wait until my schedule allows it.
Next year, I’ll be on the yearbook team and I’m going to try to work at the admissions center!</p>

<p>Zero. I have my own projects to focus on when I’m not doing school stuff.</p>

<p>I pretty much tried out or at least researched every club there is on campus at my state uni. It turns out a lot of them are poorly managed or just dont interest me enough to go every week. Some take a lot of energy and is not worth the time since I dont get a lot out of it. I ‘joined’ a lot but it quickly settled down to about ~2 main ones: men’s choir and a few others I rarely go to but still enjoy so we’ll count that as one (one of them being tennis club). Honestly, with a decently hard course load, you wont have time for clubs. Especially when you want to do other stuff like exercise at the gym</p>

<p>I’m involved in the improv club, and since that rehearses 3 times a week (we take it very seriously, we travel to conferences and competitions multiple times a year) its the only official club I’m involved in.</p>

<p>Just one. I put most of my free time into it though. We’re building a satellite, among other things.</p>

<p>I’m in a fraternity which is a big commitment. I’m our chapters treasurer as well. Also in the wake boarding club.</p>

<p>I write for the paper and I work in the writing center. The other “clubs” on my campus are either poorly organized, or irrelevant to me. I’d like to get a little more involved this coming year, but I’d rather do something I enjoyed than something I don’t really care for just to fell more “involved”.</p>

<p>I’m not in any club. I just don’t care to be in one. I think it’s great to be in one if it fits an interest, but being in one just to put it on your resume/grad school application is kind of lame (in my opinion).</p>

<p>I did none in college but by looking back I can see there was enough time to be involved in such activites. If you want to, you can do clubs.</p>

<p>I wrote for the student paper this past semester… I think that was the first club I’ve ever attended every week in my 16 years of schooling.</p>

<p>I’m starting school next year and I intend to be in the student theatre troupe, debate team, and College Democrats, and I want to join the community service group as well. </p>

<p>Hopefully I can manage it all, if not I’ll cut College Dems first because while it’s fun to hang out with like-minded people I see it as the least important. And I think it would also be cool to work on the radio station, but I might wait a year or two before trying that.</p>

<p>I play a varsity sport (DIII, so I have time for other commitments). Other than that, I’m an editor for a campus publication (which is pretty time-consuming), involved in a music group, and a volunteer for a Special-Olympics-type club. With my job and my workload, it’s a lot, but that last one is only like an hour a week so it isn’t too much, especially during the off-season.</p>

<p>I’m president of one club, a minor officer in another, on the boxing team, and ran unopposed for student senate. It’s a few things, but not too time consuming.</p>
