Picking Your Pack: How to Find Your Tribe
Georgia State boasts a wilder-than-expected club scene. From the academic to the absurd, there's a group for everyone. Here's how to sniff out your perfect pack:
- The Panther Involvement Network (PIN): This is your one-stop shop for everything clubs. It's like Tinder for student life, but hopefully with less awkward swiping (although, who knows what goes on at club meetings these days?). PIN your hopes and dreams on this website! [PIN website]
- Talk to Your Professors: Professors aren't just lecture machines (although some may try their best to convince you otherwise). Many departments have their own clubs, and your favorite professor might be the key to unlocking your inner astrophysics nerd (or whatever floats your boat).
Club Ideas That Won't Make You Cub-Crawl Away
Okay, enough with the cheesy puns. Here are some actual club ideas to get your Panther paws moving:
Tip: Stop when you find something useful.
- Feeling like Indiana Jones? Join the Archaeology Club and channel your inner explorer. Just... maybe skip the fedora.
- Got a Head for Business? Suit up for one of the many business-oriented clubs, like the Investment Banking Club or the Marketing Club. They'll have you negotiating like a boss in no time (and maybe even help you snag a fancy internship).
- Gamers Gonna Game! The eSports Club is your haven for all things competitive gaming. Just remember, showers are still a thing, even if you're on a major League of Legends bender.
- More of a Bookworm Than a Jock? The Creative Writing Club or the Book Club will be your literary lifelines. Prepare for deep discussions about Dostoevsky and maybe some heated debates over the ending of that one assigned reading everyone hated.
This is just the tip of the iceberg, Panthers! There are clubs for literally everything, from Quidditch (yes, really) to Quirk (a Harry Potter appreciation club, because of course there is).
FAQ: Club Life Survival Guide
How to find out when clubs meet? Most clubs will have information on their PIN page or social media. Stalking is not encouraged (although some club presidents might appreciate the enthusiasm).
QuickTip: Skim the first line of each paragraph.
How much does it cost to join a club? Many clubs are free, while others may have a small fee to cover costs. Think of it as an investment in your awesomeness (and maybe some free pizza).

How many clubs can I join? Go wild! But remember, you are a college student, not a circus octopus. Pace yourself, Panther.
QuickTip: Slow down when you hit numbers or data.
How do I deal with club drama? Every group has its quirks. If things get too wild, talk to a club officer or advisor. Remember, college is supposed to be fun, not a Hunger Games situation (although themed club socials are totally acceptable).
How do I start my own club? If you can't find your niche, create it! Check with the Office of Student Activities for the how-to. You could be the founder of the next big thing on campus (or at least a really cool niche club for underwater basket weaving enthusiasts).
QuickTip: Absorb ideas one at a time.
So there you have it, Panthers! With a little bit of research and a lot of enthusiasm, you're sure to find your perfect club at Georgia State. Now get out there and start making memories (and maybe some new friends)!
