Students flooded Greene Street Wednesday afternoon for the fall semester’s Student Organization Fair.
From gaining experience in their chosen field of study to getting an interesting out-of-class experience, students of all ages signed their names to hundreds of interest lists.

Sara Dixon, a second-year retailing and fashion merchandising student, signed up for Fashion Board, a club dedicated to style and the fashion industry.

“I’d love to further exercise my love of fashion,” Dixon said. “This is a great opportunity.”

At the table for No Kid Hungry, a relatively new service organization dedicated to raising money for food-insecure children, Ashley Perkins was looking to help out.

“I’m interested in service learning, and it’s an interesting opportunity to help people,” the first-year chemistry student said.

Others were looking for less serious extra-curriculars, like Taylor Montanari and Sydney Wheat, two first-year students signing up for Quidditch Club.

“I love Harry Potter and tackling people, so this seems like a good fit,” Montari said.

“I want to tackle people, too,” Wheat added.
