Topic: Why students are likely to participate more than one club in university?

University is an academic institution which provides education and wide knowledge to undergraduate and postgraduate students. Apart from it, this academic institution is a place where student experience a lot of achievements through their studies and activities. As day pass by, most of student in university are tend to be more hectic with study and club’s activity. It is a pleasure for student to enjoy the university life as much as they can but depending on their capabilities. Throwback years ago, student was given a title “bookworm” but with less enjoyment in student life and nowadays this title was sinking. This is because student enjoy in making contribution to club’s activity organized by the university besides just a formal lecture inside the class. But student still questioning, is it necessary for them to join any club that being offer in the university?

Clubs in university is another component where student pour in their result to get higher grades and better achievements. Apparently, students are more interested to participate themselves in any kind of clubs or activities outside class. Anyhow, the participation in a club sometimes can be a compulsory for a certain course and the other is just an interested.  In many situations, they are facing breaking time in decision making. They keep questioning on what will happen to their pointer if they join more than one club? Is it worthy for their time? Most of the students will make a decision at the margin. By applying economic theory, the answer to my posed question is simple, when student decide to join more club, they will experience some different system in developing their skills and profession (marginal cost). This student might be consuming another club to join but he or she will running out of time and energy (marginal benefit). Until one point when the time can be arranged perfectly with the club’s activity, the student has achieved marginal benefit equal to marginal cost.

Time consuming is very high in studying especially for proactive student. Even if there has been an increase in the numbers of subject, student still eager to be active in another program. They seek for program to benefit their extra time that being wasted without doing anything. This student must be well in managing his or her timetable; because times vary can be happen where they might be good, bad or sometimes ugly. For instance, the students will enjoy their daily life, but he or she will suffer from losing a lot of energy, weak and this leads to unhealthy lifestyle. Here, student show their marginal benefit by losing most of their time in order to get higher position in the club and developing skills within themselves.

When this student associated with more than one club in a different field, he or she will experience different knowledge among their colleagues in various positions. The knowledge that student earn from sacrifice their time are more valuable for them in the future. Even though, they keep complain on a lots of   task given in organizing club’s program plus class assignment, they still willing to spend more time with the club. This is because the enjoyment and experience by participate with other students is much more appreciated than hangout with the laziness itself. By contribute in club’s activities, this students gain a surplus for him or her in terms of profession and skills development. For instance, accounting students in UUM who contribute him or herself in MAGS club, AIESEC club and NOVAC club in at the same time will pull out their talent to get an appraisal performance in themselves. The participation in three different clubs might cause this student tired and exhausted in mentality and physically but eventually, this student manage to improve his or her interpersonal skills and showing their intellectual and physical ability(marginal cost).
