Asleep Clubs

The below clubs are asleep: they have not had a respo for a while, but are just awaiting you to wake up!

Cheese club

  • Description: The Cheese Club regularly organizes tasting evenings open to all, with the principle that everyone brings a few cheeses to help others discover them. Conferences / debates will be held during these evenings (for example: "The story of a goat cheese that wanted to go around the world", see the club logo). The Cheese Club is also the artisanal production of a small fresh cheese, the Fustel de Coulanges. Do not hesitate to join us for a discovery of the dairy world in a friendly atmosphere!

Effective Altruism ENS

  • Description : Feel like saving the world, but have no idea how to go about it? Come and discuss it with us!

You'll benefit from the many tools of the international Effective Altruism community, and from tailor-made sessions, Tuesday and Thursday 7pm:

  1. Introduction to EA ideas: How to identify an important problem? How do we define the "good" brought about by an intervention? How can we ensure that our contributions are not useless or even harmful?
  2. Thematic discussions to help focus research projects: climate, animal welfare, biohazards, artificial intelligence, etc. Let's try to plan our actions to make safe and effective choices

Homônerie

  • Description: Homosexuality is the LGBTQIAP club (acronym for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, Pansexual) of the ENS. It is open to all, and in complete discretion for those who prefer it. The activities are very varied! For the convivial side, buffets, film screenings, outings, etc. For activists, awareness raising, workshops, readings, debates. We also organize some of the most memorable evenings of the year, including, at the beginning of spring, the dazzling Red and Black, which brings all of Paris into our gym thanks to our very extensive secret networks...

STAAL

  • Welcome to the "Société trENScendantale des amies et amis des livres" or STAAL, the book club of the ENS ! Every other week, the club meets to friendly discuss a piece of literature of any country and any period of time, from Gilgamesh Epic to the short stories of Kafka including greek tragedy, chevalry novels and french realistic novels. The book read being voluntarily very diverse, the meetings are of course independant. Therefore, do not hesitate to subscribe even though you are interested in only a fraction of the texts, and coming to only some sittings.

Ulmity

  • Description :

Are you passionate about game design? Do you love video games? Do you dream of imagining characters, bringing them to life through an exciting story, mapping imaginary worlds and inventing ever more original challenges? We'd love to hear from you!

The Ulmity club aims to introduce you to video game development, with the help of the free Godot game engine. On the menu: game design, level design, 2D and 3D animation, scenery creation, programming, sound effects... There's something for everyone, with several modules covering the development of different types of game: RPGs, platformers, puzzles and more.

No hardware or prior knowledge is required! Students from all backgrounds, of sciences or humanities, are welcome. There's no commitment either! Whether you come to every session or just once a month, you'll still end up with your own playable game (more or less personalised). So don't hesitate any longer, and join the mailing list!
