Aegineung clubs will be promoted through a fair that is taking place from March 17 to 18, which is the Monday and Tuesday this week. The fair will be held at the Nobel Plaza for two days, for science and engineering students to visit.

Prepared by the 26th Federation of Aegineung Clubs, the Fair gives opportunities for Aegineung clubs to recruit new members for this school year. The event also has its purpose in helping the first year students, who are looking for exciting campus life, to find the clubs that they want to be involved in. This does not mean that only freshmen are allowed to take part, as there are many clubs that will more than welcome any students wishing to join.

Federation of Aegineung Clubs has been holding the club fair for many years in the past. This has helped in flourishing the Aegineung clubs which have a distinct personality apart from the central clubs. Aegineung clubs belong within the science and engineering campus and thus also consist of members who are students of science and engineering majors.

Many science and engineering students have exam schedules that are quite different from the semiannual—midterm and final—exam schedules that can be quite bothersome when doing club activities. Joining an Aegineung club will give those students the opportunity to enjoy enriched campus life as well as secure the time for their studies.

Song Yun Ju (’14, Biotechnology), on the other hand, felt that the booths at the fair were not as enthusiastic as she would have expected. “If they were a bit more enthusiastic on promoting their clubs, it would have drawn more attention to the booths,” she said.
