A quick visit to the Activities Fair will show that Brown is nowhere near short on clubs, teams, and organizations to join. A capella? Brown has the most possibilities per capita in the United States to do so! The more widespread trombone-capella? Check. Pole dancing? You got it. Gatherings to play board games you didn’t even know existed? Heck yeah!
However, the Brown student body is not homogenous, and it’s extremely likely that there are students out there whose extracurricular needs aren’t being met. But fear not– any student can change this by founding any of the following, very necessary clubs.
Bruin Baby Bruin, Brown’s Very First Fire Troupe
Bear costumes included.
Bears Knot
Impress your friends by tying their shoelaces so well they’re forced to remove their footwear with garden shears. Keep the flame burning by sexily (and properly) tying your future partner’s tie before a gala as you whisper sweet nothings in their ear. Take revenge on your neighborhood Girls Scouts for guilting you into buying five boxes of cookies by one-upping them with the unparalleled quality and intricacy of your knots.
Left Palm Reading
Being a lefty in this right-handed world is hard. Ringed binders, running ink, and limited desks are just a few of the problems one encounters. Being a skilled palm reader will make life a little
easier by helping you become even more of an oddity. Lefties are rare. Psychic lefties? Unheard of!
BruniCycles, Brown’s Extreme Unicycling Club
The tricks performed by this groundbreaking club aren’t your vanilla “backwards riding” and “hopping.” They will only practice the most extreme events, like cycling down College Hill, jumping over the Caesar statue at Wriston, and bumper hitching the Evening Shuttle.
Canoe Polo Club
Described as a combination of water polo, basketball and canoeing, this aquatic contact sport will allow you to outshine your friends just by joining the club. “Canoeing and playing water polo? That’s hardcore, bruh,” they will say, their mouths agape with wonderment. For those in the Brown student body who just aren’t satisfied practicing one water sport at a time, your time has come!
Glassblowing Exclusively Small Vases Club
If you’re going to practice glassblowing–a skill that will better even the blandest of resumés with its presence–you might as well make something that won’t occupy too much space in the room of the person upon whom you forced your masterpiece as a gift.
The smaller the vase, the better
Snow Sculpting Club
Meeting days will be determined after each Sunday’s weather forecast.
