What are Interest Groups?

These lists can be used by the club to direct targeted mailings to those who have signed up for a particular group. They will also be used to judge where to direct resources and emphasis for programs and meetings. So if you don't want to miss out be sure to indicate all of your interests. If we have missed something please let us know and it can be added.
