2. An organization based on a current hobby or interest “Being able to represent TCNJ in the sport I love most is very rewarding. TCNJ cheer is a close group of athletes always supporting each other on and off the mat. We get to lead the campus community in spirit at football games, basketball games, and many other community events. While also preparing for nationals where we get to preform the hard work we have put in all season.” -Olivia DeFluri, TCNJ Cheerleading involvement.tcnj.edu
3. An organization that allows you to do something that you may never get to try or engage in after college “This club gives people the opportunity to meet people that they would not normally meet within their majors. Everyone joins because they are interested in Harry Potter, but everyone stays thanks to the friendships they make. Thanks to this club, I have met my best friends. ONBT is not just a group of people who kind of like Harry Potter. ONBT is a family.” -Sara Davidson, The Order of the Nose-Biting Teacups involvement.tcnj.edu
