Corq and Events

By: Clayton Winspear

    If you’re interested in getting more involved here on campus, then I would highly suggest downloading the Corq app for your devices. This app allows you to see up to date information on events; locations, times, and activities. It is extremely easy to use. Just download the app, then create a quick profile and link it to Alfred State College. From there you can post your own events or R.S.V.P to other events being held on campus or in the area. 

    I have spent the last week using the Corq app, and I have found a multitude of interesting events that I normally wouldn’t have even been aware of. The most notable series that I have attended recently, were activities that were being hosted by the Virtual Input Club. They host themed events every other Thursday, giving students a creative outlet in which to relax and try new things. I had a wonderful time; gourd painting, watching vintage holiday themed movies, and of course eating holiday themed snacks. 

    In speaking with the Virtual Input Clubs President, Jack Goodwin, I was able to learn a lot about a club that I previously didn’t even know existed. She was very passionate about helping students pursue their own artistic goals and having a fun relaxing atmosphere, in which to express themselves and relax. The Virtual Input Club is actively recruiting new members, as well as new officers for next year, since Jack will be graduating. If any one is interested, I would highly encourage you to check them out!

    This is the power of the Corq app. It gives you all the information you need to help you get involved in new activities around campus. A large stop gap for most people is simply not having the information readily available. With this app, there are no more excuses. There are many great things happening here that simply haven’t been receiving the coverage they deserve. Here’s your chance to leave your comfort zone, try some new things and meet some new people. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
