如果你不能 找一个俱乐部 that fits, you can apply to start your own. 早餐俱乐部, Barnard’s student leadership series, will guide you from launch to passing the torch and provide the skills you’ll use to make your mark long after graduation.
“It’s good to just try things. That’s one of the great things about the school — there are so many clubs, and you can always try something and say, ‘This isn’t for me,’ and try again some other time.”
— Alana Koenig ’18
