[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many clubs at college are exclusive and hard to join too, some even more so than social Greek life. The just “sign up” clubs often fall apart. Finding a group doesn’t seem as easy as it used to be. [/quote]

My kid is at a T40, and majority of clubs are open to anyone.  There might be a few that are exclusive, and most of those are "performance groups"---dance, music, theater and you must audition to get in.  However, there are also plenty of similar "performance groups" that are literally open to everyone---as long as you show up routinely for rehearsals and activities, you are a part of the group.  For dance/music--if you want to be part of 4 pieces, you will get put into 4 pieces at the level they deem you ready for.  So yes there is a little competition--and yes, freshman year, you will be denied from a few more advanced groups that they give to juniors and seniors, despite the fact you might actually be a better dancer.  But you are still put in a group for that type of dance. And also know that when you are a junior/senior, you will get into those groups (even if you are not the top dancers)

But most clubs are "you show up and participate and if you want to be active you can". Those who are more active get to make more decisions.
