How this works

The question it answers

Every one of the 1,275 organizations on the campus directory reports its status as Active. That is a form somebody filled in once, and it is true of clubs that have not met in three years, so it cannot tell you anything. This page ignores it and asks a narrower question that can actually be checked: has anybody seen this club do anything, and when?

Every verdict is derived from a dated piece of evidence, and the evidence is printed on the card. If a club is called active, there is a date and a source behind it. If nothing can be shown, the card says so instead of guessing.

Where the evidence comes from

Campus directory
Events, which are dated and public. The registration status is deliberately never read.
The club's own website
A post in their feed, an edit in their sitemap. Only a date counts: a site being reachable proves a domain is paid for, which is a different question.
Public Instagram
How many posts the account has, read logged out from the page Instagram serves to crawlers. A count is not a date, so it proves nothing on its own. A count that has gone up since the last look is somebody posting between two days this board wrote down, and the card says both of them. No account is used and nothing is logged in to.
Students
The two buttons on every card. Two different people have to agree before a report changes anything.

The whole decision is one flowchart, from the evidence to the verdict.

What it stores about you

No account, no login, no tracking, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party scripts or requests, and no web fonts. There is no cookie.

If you report a club
The date, your note, and a salted one-way hash of your address and browser. The hash exists to count two people as two people and to stop one person filing forty reports. It cannot be turned back into an address, and it is not shown to anybody.
If you send feedback
What you wrote, and an email address only if you type one in. The field is optional and is there so you can be replied to. It is the only address belonging to a reader that this site stores anywhere.
If you just read
Nothing.

Where the data about clubs comes from

Club names, descriptions, events and contact addresses come from the university's public organization directory, where each club publishes its own. Links and post dates come from the clubs' own public pages. Nothing here is behind a login, and nothing gated is touched. Reads are cached, spaced out, and identify themselves.

A club's contact address is shown on that club's card, one at a time, behind the Details button. It is never in the list itself, so the page is not a mailing list and there is nothing on it to scrape in bulk.

If you run a club and want it removed, corrected, or left alone entirely, use the feedback button and it will be done.

What it is not

Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or run by any university, and not an official source for anything. A verdict here is a claim about public evidence, not a statement about a club. Dates go out of date. Check before you rely on one.
