Explore Opportunity: Clubs and Activities

Transcript

Danny is a Mathematics major, and you’re about to see why. He’s the perfect Roadrunner to talk about the more than a hundred diverse clubs and organizations on campus. He’s gonna add up all the opportunities to get involved on campus to multiply your fun. You’re on, Danny.

– Thank you for the introduction, Alex, There is no shortage of things to do here at Ramapo College, which is why I found it to be a perfect fit. When I came to campus, I became heavily involved across a variety of areas, including Public Safety Advisory Council, athletics liaison, national anthem singer, yearbook team, admissions team, and Student Government Association. Discussing and debating activities while also engaging in fun social activities. There is something for everyone. We have an active Greek life on campus. Or maybe you’d like to join the beekeeping club, Democracy Matters, the Roadrunner Pep Band, or become part of the College Programming Board and help plan events such as the Annual Spring Concert. Ramapo also offers a number of cultural clubs, such as the Black Students Union, the United Asian Association, and the Association for Latinos Moving Ahead. Some of the greatest conversations I had are with friends I made from getting involved. From where to get the best pizza, it’s New Jersey so there’s plenty of competition, to arranging tutoring support for classes. From when our athletics teams are playing and who is going to cheer on the Roadrunners, especially my personal favorite, our national champion ice hockey team, to where to hang out and have fun. And if you ever feel there is something missing at Ramapo, just stop by the Center for Student Involvement and create the club yourself. My college experience here at Ramapo has prepared me for higher education in graduate school at Columbia University. Ramapo has given me a future that is unlimited. And I learned that no matter where I am in life, I will always aim to leave an environment better than I found it. Throwing it back to you, Alex.

– Wow, Danny, I can’t believe you had time to share your story with all that you do on campus. The opportunities to get involved here are endless. And here’s a fun fact. More than 77% of the students at Ramapo voted in the last presidential election. With clubs like Democracy Matters and the SGA, it’s no wonder why. Best wishes to you as you head to the Ivy League. Take care, Danny.
