Explanation / Answer

Encourage and show students how they might be able to get involved on campus. This exercise works best if students are placed in groups and are encouraged to find as many organizations and ways they can get involved from the student newspaper. Allow 15 minutes for groups to make lists and then allow time for each group to report to the entire class. This helps individuals realize that organizations come in every shape and size. Give assignments at the end of one class to have students bring to class a list of every possible way they could get involved on campus. Suggest they write down information on flyers, stuff they find in the newspaper, websites, etc. Offer a prize to the student that brings in the most opportunities and have each student present his or her findings. This also works as a group homework assignment too.
