Mission Statement: Our mission is to provide members an education on the financial system and investing, encourage their interest in the subject with resources and potential mentors, provide them a space in which to further build on interests, and providing a varied enough experience that students are aware of the flaws and shortcomings of current financial systems and forms of investing, as well as their strengths and benefits, and the ways in whcih the tools of finance can be used to improve our world. Also, we want to help our members build their research skills and salesmanship, as we discuss and pitch ideas to one another. Overall, we hope to encourage responsible, excited, and proactive young investors to begin engaging with finance.

History Club
Mission Statement: The History Club challenges students to look beyond curricular, western, history towards poststructuralist narratives, all the while upholding the existing legacy of the past History Club by volunteering at Fort Montgomery biannually.

Mission Statement: Our mission is to create a community for people to share their passion and love for mathematics. By touching upon some of the most inspiring, graceful ideas in mathematics, we strive to showcase the grandeur of the intact mathematics framework. We will be able to examine and even challenge the underlying structure of mathematics, such as the foundation of number, deductive reasoning, real analysis, etc. We will also focus on developing students' logical thinking skills and learning new math knowledge.

Psychology Club
