when applicants become members. They are also used for club-sponsored
events, trips, and equipment/materials.

anime. This is negotiable with the officers and those under the minimum
age requirement may be able to work something out with the club.
*4-Subtitling is an independent project of the certain club members and
is not required of all members; it's on an interest/voluntary participation
basis only. The only thing required of the members in this area is viewing
the finished subtitled projects the help spot any grammatical English
translation errors.

vote.

needed.
