Once the viewing commences, attendees are free to do whatever they please, whether that means enjoying the atmosphere while doing homework or simply watching the anime. When a big-name anime movie comes to theaters in America, the club tries to schedule a time and date that is convenient for most attendees to visit the AMC theater in Times Square to watch it. The Anime Club is a very underclassmen-friendly environment, and we gladly welcome newcomers and veterans to anime alike.

Astronomy Society
Right now, we’re standing on a rotating space rock spinning around a giant ball of nuclear fusion surrounded by a vast sea of darkness. Members of Astronomy Society have an unfaltering curiosity to help illuminate this darkness and further their understanding of the universe. Says Neil Degrasse Tyson: “We are stardust brought to life, then empowered by the universe to figure itself out — and we have only just begun.”

To do this, members learn how to use 3D modeling programs to design and build the robot alongside Java coding to program the robot’s movements.

The club also highlights historically underrepresented populations, such as women, within the rap community and discusses their influence and contributions to the community and culture. We take what used to be a frowned upon genre of music that now is one of the most polarizing forms of art and take time to appreciate and commemorate the artistry, work, and turmoil that it and its people have undergone to become the influential force it is today. The club can both have fun and discuss important themes and topics within our weekly meetings on Fridays, and it welcomes all with open ears and arms.

Model U.N. is a community-driven simulation of the internal functions of the United Nations. We meet weekly, alternating between two meeting types: conferences and planning sessions. During planning sessions, club members come with topic suggestions, and after some discussion, they are voted on. After a topic is chosen, countries are randomly assigned, and we adjourn for the day. Over the course of the week, members are expected to research their nation’s position on the topic and prepare for discussion. During conferences members debate, discuss, and draft resolutions aimed at the topic. Resolutions can involve anything from peacekeeper deployments to economic sanctions, and members are forced to seek out allies if they want their resolutions to succeed. Model U.N. is a great opportunity to practice public speaking and learn about international politics. Members must adapt from conference to conference, gaining a deeper understanding of the various perspectives held by different countries.

Quiz Bowl
