You are a freshman and just finished your first week of class. You are settled into your dorm room, have purchased the textbooks for your classes, and now want to join a club or start an extracurricular activity. You believe that getting involved on campus will help you fit in and adjust to the new environment.

As you sit down at your desk to review some of them, you notice a flyer on your roommate's desk.
