Clubs, Candy and FOMO

Issue date: 10/4/06 Section: KSG News
FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) is ubiquitous at KSG. Students can't stop talking about it. Part of this fear comes from the sheer volume of student organizations on campus. During the KSG Student Club Fair, the Forum's invisible corners were crammed with dozens of student-run tables, all clamoring for attention with sign-up sheets and candies galore.
Still confused? Still fighting the nagging feeling that you are missing out on something potentially life-changing? The Citizen provides here a few student organizations to help you navigate the maze of opportunities.
