This really opened my eyes just to how much there is in Roosevelt. The clubs that stood out to me were the book club (which I will be joining next year) and ping pong club, which just seems like a really fun activity. I am already in the french club and SALSA, but I’m thinking that I will be joining more next year.
Don’t forget about Drama Club! All are always welcome and invited to attend any meetings and get involved.
