It has become increasingly clear that there is a vacuum with regards to the resources that are readily available to Georgetown students who are interested in a career in tech.

The Georgetown University Grilling Society, or simply GUGS (the first "g" is soft, as in "genius") was founded in the Summer of 2002 with a few simple goals in mind, to create an organization attractive to Georgetown students who:

- love to grill
- love to cook and eat good food
- want to meet new and exciting people
- want to learn more about the art of grilling
- want to share their knowledge of grilling with others
- want to be a part of a special Georgetown tradition
- want to have a good time

Since its humble beginnings as a 4-person club with one mysteriously-acquired grill, GUGS has grown into one of Georgetown's most popular social collectives. The members come first, fun comes second, while food conveniently binds them together.

Spring of 2004, GUGS was co-named Outstanding Student Organization of the Year. In the fall of 2004, GUGS shared the 1st place award for Best Traditions during the Georgetown Traditions Day competition. It is without a doubt that with the continuing support of our members and fans, the Grilling Society will continue to thrive in the Georgetown community, bringing good food and good atmosphere to students, faculty, administration, and visitors alike!

Beneath the trees which line the grounds of Georgetown, the Georgetown University Grilling Society strives to maintain the fundamental values of mankind through bonds and friendships forged in the very fires upon which we cook.

SJP is a diverse group of students, faculty, staff, and community members at Georgetown University. Our group is organized according to democratic principles in order to promote justice, human rights, liberation, and self-determination for the Palestinian People.

As an advocacy group, SJP is committed to a core set of principles to which it expects its members to adhere. SJP believes that while the Palestinian people must ultimately be able to decide their future in Palestine, certain key principles, grounded in (a) international law, (b) human rights, and (c) basic standards of justice, are fundamental to a just resolution of the plight of the Palestinians. These include, but are not limited to, the full decolonization of all Palestinian lands, and the end of the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Syrian Golan Heights. Furthermore, we advocate for the fulfillment of the right of return and repatriation of Palestinian refugees, as well as an end to the Israeli system of apartheid against the indigenous Palestinian population. Just as SJP condemns the oppression and discrimination underlying the policies and laws of the state of Israel, SJP rejects and condemns any form of hatred or discrimination against any religious, racial, national, or ethnic group. SJP is committed to fighting bigoted sentiments towards all marginalized students in the Georgetown community. Rooting its strength in the diversity of its membership, SJP welcomes individuals of all ethnic and religious backgrounds to join in solidarity with the struggle for justice in Palestine. SJP seeks to achieve these goals via educational events, advocacy, fundraisers, and direct action.

As a cultural group, SJP is dedicated to promoting Palestinian culture and the humanity of Palestinians. SJP holds that the appreciation and celebration of Palestinian history and culture is inextricably tied to the advocacy of Palestinian liberation. SJP seeks to achieve these goals via cultural events recognizing and celebrating Palestinian food, dance, arts, language, literature, and films. SJP actively encourages the Georgetown community to participate in this celebration in a manner which is non-appropriating.

The mission of the Georgetown Federalist Society is to foster critical thought and debate about the application of conservative and libertarian principles to the law. The Federalist Society embraces the principle that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to the integrity of the Constitution of the United States of America, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is – not what it should be. The Federalist Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities. This entails reordering priorities within the legal system to place a premium on individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law. It also entails restoring recognition of these norms among lawyers, judges, students, and professors.
