Involvement Fair Reflection

The three student organizations that I would like to join are DeFrag (DePaul's Fundamental Research in Academic Gaming), DAFT (DePaul Alliance for Free Thought), and ACE (Asian Cultural Exchange).

The purpose of DeFrag is "to provide events and resources in gaming for entertainment and education to the students and friends of DePaul University." I would like to join this group because I am an avid video gamer. I play video games as a hobby to pass time. Also my major is in Computer Game Development. I though this would be a great chance to get associated with other students who are other gamers. I plan to be involved with this group by attending all of their events and helping out in the gaming labs later on in the year.

The purpose of DAFT is that it is a group for atheists, agnostics, and freethinkers at DePaul University. They help present a positive view of atheism to the community. They help promote inter-faith tolerance. They would also like to keep an open mind about other people's beliefs or standpoints. I would like to join this group because I consider myself to be an atheist. This might seem out of place in a Catholic university, but there is also a homo/transexual group here at DePaul. I also feel that this group provides tolerance of other people's beliefs. I plan to be involved in this group by going to meetings and events.

The purpose of ACE is "to encourage the exchange of talents, knowledge, and experiences between its members and the DePaul community by preserving the richness and sanctity of the individual cultures and traditions that are part of the Asian American heritage." I would like to join this group because I am a first-generation Filipino American. I also have a fondness of other Asian cultures because they seem to be interconnected with each other in some way. I plan to be involved with this group by attending meetings and events that they have to offer.

These are some of the groups that I plan on joining and getting involved with. They seem to fit my personal preferences. It also shows that DePaul has a lot to offer to fit your own likes and preferences.
