@novafan1225 I apologize for generalizing the whole student body here and making a statement about lack of involvement in clubs. I am also only speaking directly from my own experience. I am heavily involved in a business frat, a mentorship program for young girls in communities around Boston, and an activist club. I hold e-board positions in all these clubs and in addition I have started a mental illness awareness campaign and am working on a case team. However, all of my freshman year i noticed that it was hard to see consistency in the clubs and as the executive board changed every semester the club dynamics changed, there was more conflict and disorganization and it was tough to be actively involved in some of the clubs as the officers got lazy about meetings and putting on events with coop and other things going on. My goal then and now is to better these organizations that I am so passionate about and I’m trying to make these goals a reality by being on the e-board, and that’s what I encourage any new huskies to do - find a problem you can fix and do just that! I love Northeastern and I will do anything to help make this community better for all of us
Regarding BU being campus-centric, I don’t mean in the physical sense but rather in the way that more events go on there than they do at northeastern and there’s generally more to do. they have more established clubs and Greek life (our business frat was modeled after theirs), and they have more facilities and resources (our dance studios at curry could be improved for instance) and also so many more options for food places
