The Upper School will be experiencing a new approach when it comes to creating clubs, finding members, and representing themselves in a club fair this year.

A meeting was held in the Upper School Lounge on Tuesday, September 9^, for current and potential leaders of student clubs and organizations to talk about the new system and the, thus far, unplanned club fair.

“The club fair isn’t working. They just sign up for 40 different clubs and never hear back,” said Hallie Gillam.

A club fair is not in the works. For the first time, the student leaders were asked whether or not they actually wanted a club fair, and, if not, what creative alternatives they could come up with.

“At the present time, we will not be hosting the club fair in the same way we have done it in the past. I welcome any suggestions for ways in which we can make it better,” said College Guidance Director Timothy Gibson.

Gibson has taken the role as leader of clubs and student organizations in the Upper School after the departure of Kelly Majuri, the former leader.

The way new clubs are chosen will also be different this year, as well. Student Senate President Hallie Gillam will be sitting down with Gibson and helping look through the different clubs for the upcoming year after each club has presented themselves and their ideas for leadership.
