Advice on starting a finance club in college?

I am currently a community college student, and I am trying to boost my application because I apply to schools next year. My GPA is not great for a computer engineering major (3.4), and I want to attend UCLA. To help myself, I want to start a finance club hoping it can make my application look better. I eventually want to get a masters in MFE, so it is also relevant to my future. Any tips or general advice on how to start a meaningful club that can be successful? Thanks.

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee

First and foremost, how knowledgeable in finance are you? No one will want to join, let alone stick around if the founder/president is a dullard.

“The important thing is never to let oneself be guided by the opinion of one's contemporaries; to continue steadfastly on one's way without letting oneself be either defeated by failure or diverted by applause.”

Minima suscipit quae aut ducimus. Eos enim doloribus occaecati ut. Nihil nihil tempore enim quia voluptatem. Fuga et voluptas error cum. Unde dolore est nobis iste aliquid deleniti.
