Why Should I Join a Students' Club? The Motivations Behind Participating in Students' Clubs

Abstract

College students' socialization and the level of their socialization will directly influence the process of the student's growth, their living and their development in the future. Students’ clubs affiliation in particular is the focus of our stu dy’s attention. We have tried to identify the profile of the students involved in these clubs, their motivation for involvement, the means by which these clubs are being promoted among students, how they attract new members and what type of activities do t hey organize. We have used a mixed methodology, combining opinion survey and focus groups, to get a better picture of these clubs’ activities and membership.
