If you somehow missed the announcements about the College of Media, Communication and Information鈥檚 second annual Involvement Fair, there were two things you couldn鈥檛 miss coming from the CASE patio鈥攖he smell of fresh popcorn and the sight of bubbles floating around.听

baby直播app 200 students attended last month鈥檚 fair, which showcases many of the college鈥檚 clubs, organizations and academic opportunities, including study abroad options unique to CMCI.听

Many students were crowding around the Adobe Creative Club table, asking questions, snacking on some popcorn and signing up for the group鈥檚 next meeting. The fairly new student-led club offers an open space where students of all experience levels learn to improve their skills in Adobe applications, such as Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator.听

鈥淲e just want to create a space to make Adobe less overwhelming and give some creative inspiration,鈥� said sophomore Paige Michael, a strategic communication major and co-president of the club.听

Michael was eager to recruit new members to her club and be a part of an event that helps others find their place on campus.

鈥淐oming to the fair allows new students to be aware of opportunities that this college brings us,鈥� she said. 鈥淓ven if you don't have time to join every single thing, it gives you a bigger sense of belonging, knowing all the communities you can be a part of.鈥�

The event gave students opportunities to both follow their passions and discover new ones.听

鈥淏efore coming to Boulder, I knew I鈥檇 be involved in student media鈥攂ut I just found out from the tables that they do a lot of things I'm interested in,鈥� said Colby Wyatt, a first-year student majoring in media production. 鈥淚 won't be just writing articles, I'll get to work with cameras. And I get to commentate on sports and, of course, meet new people and learn new skills.鈥�

As such, the fair got visitors from different colleges at CU Boulder. Lesley Vazquez, a sophomore majoring in creative technology design with a minor in media production, was among the crowd at the Adobe table.听

鈥淚鈥檓 in a design foundations class where we had to buy Adobe鈥攁nd since I have it for the year, and I want to go into a creative field where Photoshop may be used, I want to get more experience in it,鈥� Vazquez said.听

Students said they appreciated CMCI鈥檚 commitment to hosting events that help them feel at home in the college.听

鈥淎ll you have to do is walk up to the table, write your name and email on a sheet of paper, and, boom, you're in a new club,鈥� Wyatt said. 鈥淚t's nice to just have these tables out like this鈥攊t鈥檚 hard to miss and it鈥檚 an easy way to get involved.鈥澨�
