There are workshops, clubs and organizations to join such as the Student Government Association and Amine Club, fun and professional events happening all year round. You could even create your own club. There is a UMA fitness center for students FREE of charge. All you have to do is look around and discover YOUR campus! The possibilities are ENDLESS.
