Delete per WP:NOT and WP:NOTE: Though someone has obviously but a good deal of effort into this article, Wikipedia is not a random collection of college clubs. Also, this organization has not demonstrated how it has externally-verifiable notability per WP:NOTE. None of the sources are strong secondary sources, which means they cannot establish notability. I'm sure WP:V is satisfied; if sources were brought to bear which were independent of the establishment, and a thorough purging (by fire, of course) of the article were to be had, then this would be a keep, but as it is, the article does not meet the requirements for inclusion.

 * Comment the nominator is an anon IP whose only edits have been AfDs. Edit history and user name suggest a single-purpose account.--Rtphokie (talk) 17:03, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Notwithstanding apparent single-mindedness of nominator, this is the right call. Wikipedia is not a directory for campus activities. ~ Ningauble (talk) 17:55, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
