Problems of Joining Activities in Colleges

By: Jae Yu Ko

When students get to colleges, they need time to get used to colleges. As soon as classes get started, students begin to have homework and getting busy. By the way, there are several students who really want to join the clubs or activities that they like. But, there is a problem with it. Even though students want to join activities, they also have a bunch of homework to do. They will be busy and it is not easy to participate in clubs in colleges. Therefore, government of the United States or the head of colleges should care about students who want to join activities.

There are students who want to participate in clubs. However, if they join there, they will be busier than any other people in colleges. As everyone knows, works for colleges are much more burdensome than high school. Even though students do not participate in clubs, they are still busy and sometimes they have to stay all day long resulting in a lack of sleep. Especially, that problem comes to international mostly because they usually stay more time than Americans. Some internationals want to join clubs such as sports clubs. For example, one of my friends named Joe Kim wants to participate in baseball clubs because he loves baseball. But, he has a lot of homework to do on Thursday and try-out is on that day. He does not know whether he has to go to practice or not because of excessive work for the next day. Finally, he went to practice and could not finish his work because he became tired.

As examples were stated above, the head of colleges should care about students who want to join clubs. Students who do not participate in activities absolutely will get better score than students who do them. Therefore, sports players or club members are to get extension of homework.
