How can I learn more?

get involved

When you join a club, you won't learn much by sitting back and watching and there is little satisfaction in doing so anyway. Remember that all clubs and societies survive on the fact that members actively contribute to their activities. Be sure to get involved! Attend meetings, contact members, volunteer for a job, get on the committee, attend the functions.
