First of all, don’t worry about being shy. You’re not the only one! Second, there are a couple ways to learn more about Student Organizations. A good place to start is online at http://studentorgs.uncc.edu where you’ll find a complete listing of student organizations (UNC Charlotte has over 200 to choose from). When you have some idea of what kind of group you’re looking for, call Student Org.’s staff advisor, Zane Reif @ 704/687-3181. He can connect you with a contact person for that group. Another place to go is the Student Activities office (OSA) on the 2nd floor of Cone Center, next to Main Street Market or call them @ 704/687-2521. There you will find all kinds of printed information and any one of the staff people there will be happy to help you find an organization or activity that matches your interests.
