Interview with Lake Knights member, Joe:
Me: How did you decide to become involved with Late Knights?
Joe: I decided to join because I was new to UCF, and I wanted to find something to do outside of the bar scene. I’m not a big drinker.
Me: Oh, ok. And, how was the process of joining for you? Did you struggle in any way when you were new?
Joe: Not really. I mean, at first it was a little awkward at the events because I didn’t know anyone, but then I started to volunteer at more events and got more comfortable with the people.
Me: So, would you say that volunteering would be a good way to become a part of the Late Knights community?
Joe: Yes, that’s definitely the best way to go.
