Opportunities everywhere. Before your school's Involvement Fair, consider researching the school's website and look for listings and descriptions of clubs and take notes of the ones you are interested in so when the Involvement Fair comes you are prepared. Last year's Involvement Fair, I talked to so many club representatives that I can't remember which one interested me the most and I overlooked a few that would have interested me. There are flyers everywhere, look at them when you are free. You will be surprise from all the unsung events or opportunities available.
