We're just a small part of a larger community of dance clubs on the RIT campus. Therefore, we encourage our members to experiment with new and different styles of dance in order to improve their individual ability, meet new people, and achieve a more rounded knowledge of dance in general.

We do hope you’ll join us. To be added to our mailing list, shoot us an email at
rbdcballroom@gmail.com!

Many of us started right here at RIT in the Wellness program. If you didn’t know, RIT Wellness offers beginner ballroom and latin classes (that count toward your graduation requirements!) as well as intermediate classes for more experienced dancers.

Effective Altruism

Student Clubs & Organizations- Center for Campus Life - Leadership & Civic Engagement

Web site Mission Contact: Devin Kalish

Mission
RIT Effective Altruism is a club for discussing the foundations and applications of the "Effective Altruism" movement.
The basic premise of Effective Altruism is trying to figure out how to do “the most good”.
The movement has a heavy focus on philosophy and research, and generally applying methods of rationality to problems, the most common framework used to assess the importance of an issue is looking at how large, tractable, and neglected it is. We apply ideas from fields ranging from economics to psychology to ethics, to try and solve them.
Effective Altruism is based on the idea that while helping others is good, not all forms of this are equal, and it is morally imperative to use evidence and reason to do good in the best ways possible. This is usually focused on charitable giving, but also relates to career choice, politics, and consumer decisions as well.
While giving your time and resources to one good cause versus another may feel the same to you, there can be a difference in impact on the scale of hundreds or even thousands for some uses versus others.
The biggest specific subareas of interest within Effective Altruism are global health and development, factory farming, and the long term future.

Geocaching is a game played by thousands around the world. The basic idea is that someone hides a "cache" and logs the coordinates on the website. Then the other players can go and find the cache. The point of the game is to get out and explore the area around you, as cache's are typically hidden at interesting locations including parks, hiking trails, statues, monuments, artworks, and anything else that might be interesting or not well known. There are currently 1,309 cache's hidden in a 10 mile radius of Rochester. The club would be a way for fellow players to meet and play together, and to teach the game to people who have not heard about it yet. Another aspect of the game is hiding a cache. Cache's can be hidden almost anywhere, they can include riddles, be multistage, or even virtual. The club would get the opportunity to design and hide it's own cache.

We are dedicated, as a club, to provide students with an opportunity to play intercollegiate ice hockey at a competitive level. As a RIT SG recognized Club, we are entitled to funds, however limited. Therefore we do charge a player fee. This fee is determined at the beginning of each year and will cover practice and game ice time as well as travel expenses.

As student athletes, we understand that education is our first priority here at RIT and that school takes precedence over hockey. However, as a team we are committed to preparing ourselves for the highest level of competition. Having said that, we as a club have rules and regulations for players regarding attendance to practice, fundraising events, etc. that will dictate a players eligibility for games.

As a Student Government recognized club, we cannot limit our membership by sex and we encourage membership of both men and women. However, the ACHA is a men's league and we cannot roster a female for a game.

Sports offered through the campus life program promote development of leadership skills and values, promote campus spirit and provide visibility for the Institute. Support the Tigers by attending an exciting athletic event.

DSA is a multidisciplinary Doctoral Students association at RIT, striving to create a collaborative environment. The PhD student community is in need of an inviting environment that brings students together to encourage collaborative work. Peer discussion and evaluation are inseparable aspects of the scientific and personal growth of researchers. This organization will serve as a resource for PhD students where they can collaborate to produce high quality journal publications and conference presentations in a friendly and encouraging environment. We believe that students will benefit from both the process of receiving assistance as well as reviewing the work of others. We will also work to provide information about professional and social activities to help produce well rounded graduate students.

In collaboration with RIT Student Government, the Sustainability office, and the School of Communication, the Center for Residence Life has helped to establish and promote the RIT FoodShare program consisting of the RIT FoodShare facebook group, facebook page, and the FoodShare Center located at 113 Riverknoll.

The RIT FoodShare facebook group was created on December 3, 2014 and to date boasts over 3200 members. The group is open to the public but the intended audience is the RIT community. Members can request to receive post notifications. Faculty, staff or students can post within the group to notify members that there is food available somewhere on campus from a department or organizational event/activity. Posts generally include a picture of the food, quantity, location and time the food will be available.

The RIT FoodShare Center was officially opened on April 13, 2015 with an Open House for the community being held on Tuesday, April 21, 2015. The FoodShare Center exists to address food insecurity amongst students, faculty or staff. It is open Mon-Fri – 11am-7pm, Saturdays from 12pm-4pm and is staffed by Resident Advisors. Any member of the RIT community can visit the Center to donate non-perishable items, swap out items they have for those they want, and/or take items they need. Up to five items can be taken per visit to the Center - no proof of need required.

Select SAE Clean Snowmobile Team's group



SAE Clean Snowmobile Team

Student Clubs & Organizations- Center for Campus Life - STEM

Web site Mission

Mission
The SAE International Clean Snowmobile Challenge (CSC) program is an engineering design competition for undergraduate and graduate students. The program provides participants with the opportunity to enhance their engineering design and project management skills by applying learned classroom theories in a challenging competition that tests their designs to reengineer an existing snowmobile to reduce emissions and noise. Participants’ modified snowmobiles will compete in a variety of events including emissions, noise, fuel economy/endurance, acceleration, handling, static display, cold start and design.

There are two categories in the Internal Combustion in which teams can compete: gasoline or diesel. The intent of the competition is to develop a snowmobile that is acceptable for use in environmentally sensitive areas such as our National Parks or other pristine areas. The modified snowmobiles are expected to be quiet, and emit significantly less unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide than current production snowmobiles, without significantly increasing oxides of nitrogen emissions. Since higher, more noticeable emission particles are also a characteristic of diesel engines, there will be an additional emissions requirement for controlling soot. The modified snowmobiles are also expected to be cost-effective and comfortable for the operator to drive. The intent of the competition is to design a touring snowmobile that will primarily be ridden on groomed snowmobile trails. Modern snowmobiles are engineered to meet the current standards for noise and emissions. Teams are expected to add innovative solutions for improving on the performance of the base sled that they start with. Design judges (written and verbal) will be looking for innovations and incorporating that into their scores.

SPEX Astrodynamics

Student Clubs & Organizations- Center for Campus Life - STEM

Web site Mission Contact: Email group officers

Mission
RIT SPEX Astrodynamics is a multidisciplinary group that focuses on tracking celestial objects, learning about orbital mechanics, space technology, and more. Students will get hands on experience with optical systems, observing the sky, astrophotography and data collection. They can also learn about space and spacecraft missions.
The astrodynamics team is responsible for developing the expertise and techniques for tracking fast moving Low-Earth Orbit(LEO) objects. We use optical telescopes to record LEO object orbital elements then use that data with Orbital Simulation software to model their orbits over time.


Telescopes
We have two telescopes provided through the Provost's Learning Innovations Grant. Our primary scope is the Meade LX200-ACF GPS 12"" reflector telescope. We also use a 80mm refractor scope as a spotting scope mounted coaxially to the LX200. We are also acquiring an equatorial mounted scope. This would be lower power but would simplify observations of slow moving objects. It would also be ideal for community outreach events since it is easier to use. The LX200-ACF GPS is ideal for satellite tracking applications. We require a high tracking speed to keep up with fast moving objects and cubesats have a very low apparent magnitude. The 80mm refractor is a good complement to the main scope. Its wide field of view makes acquiring targets easier than through the main scope and it is powerful enough to be used for observations separately.

Sensors
We have 3 imaging sensors that we use for observations. Our primary sensor is a Canon EOS Rebel SL1 DSLR. We chose this sensor because of its relatively low weight and slim profile compared to other DSLRs. This allows for unrestricted movement of the telescope while the sensor is attached. The sensor is operated remotely via a computer connected with USB. We are currently using Canon's proprietary software for controlling the sensor. Our secondary sensor is the Orion Starshoot Solar System Color Imaging Camera IV. This CMOS sensor is lightweight and has a slim profile allowing it to be integrated on every scope we have. It is designed to be used for astrophotography and features an integrated 1.25"" adapter. Our tertiary sensor is an old Logitech webcam. It was initially designed for video chat but we have modified it to be used for astrophotography purposes. We are currently acquiring a 12mm to 1.25"" adapter to mount the sensor with our scopes.
