UCLA

Over the past week, I decided to explore Baruch by focusing on its clubs. I was aware that this college had over one hundred and fifty clubs. However, I was not completely familiar with what all of the options are. Around the school I had seen many posters about the UCLA club. I have also been approach by people who were already members of UCLA, encouraging me to join their club. After hearing what they had to say about the club, it made me genuinely interested to find out more about it. The UCLA members described that the club was about promoting culture, especially Chinese culture. So, I decided to go to the meeting set up by UCLA because I wanted to learn more about the club. At the meeting, there were speakers talking about the club’s upcoming events and what the club represented, and they had a presentation about it. What the members had to say made me even more interested in UCLA. I wrote my contact information for them so I can get involved in the future as well so I can find out what I can do to get involved. After the presentation was finished, we played a game involving everyone at the meeting. The people in the room were split in half into two teams to compete against each other. For each team, there would be a leader to represent the players and be the speaker for them. Whenever someone had an answer to a question players would shout the answers to the team leaders. The leaders would then tell the hosts their answer so that the answer could be verified as right or wrong. These games were a lot of fun because everyone could get their voices heard if they wanted they wanted to. They were points awarded to these games and a winner was declared at the end of each game. After playing games, the club took a group photo of everyone that attended the meeting.
