As a new student, not
knowing anyone can be a scary thought. The feeling of being alone one campus
and not having a sense of where you belong could make time you spend there
unenjoyable.

At Avila University’s Student organizational fair
students get the opportunity to explore many of the organizations and clubs the
school has to offer, as well as a place to bond and build new friendships.
Carol Frevert, the director of health services, agrees. She stated she felt
that “it is important for new students who may feel lost to find something they
are interested in and join an organization so they feel important and that they
are a part of something.” She also thinks “it may help people who are a little
shy to open up and make new friends.”

The Fair is a great way to find out important
information regarding all the clubs/organizations as well as, a place to enjoy
free food and drinks. Students can also relax and take in the entertainment
provided through games, musicians, and artist. Many students enjoy socializing
while the event promoters and club leaders try to encourage new members to
join. Jason Baldwin, the director of student life, says the most important benefit
in putting on the event is so “students get the opportunity to explore many
different organizations we offer and get to meet the people that run those
organizations to see what they might be most interested in.”
Everyone should attend this event both old and new
student alike as it is a great way to kick off the school year.
