Now’s The Time to Get Involved It has often been said that a good college education involves much more than just the 15 hours a week spent in the classroom. In fact, one member of the Providence College administration stated, "One advantage of a college education is the chance for a multisocial in­ volvement and the chance to react to many people on many levels.” This statement is quite consistent with the many opportunities for in­ volvement that the various clubs and organizations on campus afford the students of Providence College. These opportunities have just recently begun to manifest themselves again in the form of club and organization elections, as they do every second semester and in the fall at the Club Fair. These opportunities should be considered by every student at Providence College as a chance to enhance their college education. After reviewing the membership lists of several different clubs, it has become apparent that a relatively small percentage o f the college community actually take advantage of this additional source of educa­ tion. as a result, there is a concentrated number of students who become involved in numerous clubs and activities. Facts back this up. Consider the following: O f the 40 members of the Student Congress in the senior, junior, and sophomore years, 10 are also members of the Friars Club. Four of these 10 constitute the Executive Board of Congress. Additional research shows that 18 percent of the 38 member Board Of Program­ mers are members of the Friars Club. There are two other large clubs/orginizations which also illustrate the point. The President of the Pastoral Council is involved in the BOP and Friars Club, while seven of its 20 chairpersons are involved in the Friars Club, the Knights of Columbus, BOP, or the Junior Ring Weekend Core Committee. One final group to consider is the campus council Knights of Col­ umbus. Three members of the council are Presidents of other clubs, 14 members are Friars, five members are BOP chairpersons or ex­ Sports and The Whole Man: ecutive board members, and six are on Congress.
