A few weeks before the term actually started, I picked up a club schedule from the Student Life department. I looked through all of the clubs and while I found some interesting ones, I became interested in this one club. A few weeks after the clubs opened, I decided to attend a GIM for a table-top gaming club, also known as the GRID. The first time I went to a GIM, I found out that they weren’t even hosting it yet! So I waited two more weeks for it to host one, and finally I attended the second meeting. I went in, introduced myself, and was immediately covered in board games and memes.
My face in the club-room shared by three different clubs.
It was pretty nice! I met someone who was willing to host a RPG board game and spent the rest of the meeting discussing plans for it. There were so many board games I had never seen before, and I finally got the opportunity to play The Settlers of Catan at my next meeting, and while I lost, it was an amazing experience to share a board game experience with peers!
I visited the club-room some time after the first meeting and found out it was actually shared by three clubs: The GRID, The Anime Club, and the Environmental Cooperation Organization if I recall correctly. It has become somewhere I visit when I wanna relax and play or observe some board games. All in all, it was a pretty great find for me.
Hi Sam,
I’m so happy you’ve taken interest in a club that gives you a sense of belonging on campus. Hope it stays that way!
