Students in the University’s Gaming Club meet three times a month to take part in various group gaming activities.
From bored to board games
■When all work and no play
makes students dull, the
Gaming Club provides a
chance to have some fun
Good Clean
By Josh Ryneal
Oregon Daily Emerald
It seems the University has a club
for pretty much everything. Club
sports such as lacrosse and ulti
mate frisbee are probably the most
recognizable and popular, but there
are also options for people who
want a little unstructured fun.
Among them is the University’s
Gaming Club. The club, which
meets three times a month, offers
its 30-odd members a chance to
play board games, card games, role
playing games and even the occa
sional game of capture-the-flag.
Julian Leiberan-Titus, an unde
clared junior and president of the
club, said he became a member af
ter a friend recommended it.
“I was looking for opportunities
to game,” he said, “And it turned
out to be a lot of fun.”
Leiberan-Titus also said that the
club is always looking for new
members and membership is easy
to obtain.
“We’re very open to anyone
showing up to our meetings,” he
said.
Among some of the new things
the club is trying are organized
games that people may remember
and want to play but don't have
enough people to get them togeth
er.
“One of our members is trying to
start up a video game football
league,” he said, “but one of my fa
vorites is sword-fighting with foam
wrapped PVC pipes. We really beat
on each other.”
Joel Kenney, a sophomore com
puter science major and Gaming
Club member, said that sometimes
the games can be a little bizarre.
“We play this game where we
smash little clay figures,” he said
with a laugh. “It sounds strange,
but it's actually kind of fun.”
Sarah Giffrow, a senior majoring
in media design and the club's sec
retary and webmaster, said she
joined her sophomore year because
she was looking for something fun
to do that “wasn't hard-core
sports.”
“The people here are nice and
pretty much open to anything,” she
said.
Giffrow said the club is trying to
expand its membership by putting
up fliers and telling students about
its existence.
“I feel like we're growing a lot
and getting the word out,” she said.
The club meets at 7 p.m. in the
Carson Gold Room the first and
third Saturday of each month to
play games and once a month for
an organizational meeting. For

and how to join, visit
