there should be information on the hmong club because i know they do a whole bunch of cool, exciting, and beneficial things each year.
Why isn't Youth for Freedom on this website? It's the most productive club on campus i've seen in a long time! They went to D.C. to speak to members of Congress about today's current issues and the U.S. Foreign Policy. They DESERVE to be on here; it's also started by a student for her senior project.
