Students’ own interests should provide the focus for their participation in extracurricular
activities. Activities are not categorized according to a value judgment. Fraternity
chapters, literary societies, orchestras, and football teams are considered equal. However,
students who participate in one or two activities are probably more attractive to
admission authorities and employers than students who are involved in a range of
random organizations. Some schools and businesses have a tradition of favoring
volunteer service to others (children, the elderly, those with injuries and those with no
home), while others may prefer activities that require students to acquire judgment,
efficiency, organization, and cooperation, such as being a journalist for the student
newspaper or administering a regional volunteer project. Students should normally focus
their energy on areas that interest them.
