We're here to provide students with an opportunity to take a break from the grind and relax with some board games. The club has an expansive list of games, supplemented by member's personal collections, so we've got something for every taste: from hard strategy to lighthearted party games and everything in between. Stay for the long haul, or pop in every now and then when you really need a break; we'd be happy to have you.
