"I started an applications and technology solutions club in college. There wasn't a club like it, so I decided to create the club I was interested in joining. This took a lot of effort. From defining the purpose of the club, creating a constitution for it, recruiting and assessing interest, electing my club's officers, to our first meeting, and continuing spreading the word. I learned a lot from that experience. I am proud to say the club is still going today."
