If you're non-white, you have plenty of options. If you're white... sorry.

Sooooo many clubs on campus are multi-cultural. I was in the multi-cultural club in hs and my friend and I were the nly caucasion people. But there do seem to be a lot of clubs for Asian people. There's also the Creative Writing & Poetry Club, that's good if you like to write, or even like to read.

Cultural clubs are definitely not the only ones available. Interested in politics? Join a political club, like the Young Liberals or *shudders* the young conservatives or NDP. There are a lot of non-partisan clubs too.
Academic clubs are interesting as well, and a great way to meet people with the same interests as you. There are tons of clubs that have nothing to do with race, culture, or religion. |

Yeah that should probably read there are SOME clubs that having nothing to do with race, cultural and/or religion and even that's stretching.
The majority of campus clubs seem to be based on one or more of this things making them all very exclusive.

I'm pulling this number from my ass, but from 3 years of Clubsfest, I'd say a near majority of them are related to race/culture/religion/politics.
And really... who cares about those things. >_<
(so pumped for the Pool club xD)
