Current News and Announcements:
CLUB MERCH SOON! We’ve been working out how to properly set up and distribute club merchandise for a while, and we think that we’ve found a good method to do so. However, we haven’t yet settled on a design! This is where you come in – feel free to submit any and all (self-made) artwork that you think would work well to represent AMPU. We’ll be accepting submissions until the end of January, and then open voting on the designs throughout the first week of February. I will be sending out more details regarding merch costs, apparel options (currently, we’re thinking of offering masks, t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.), and other logistics as we approach the submission deadline. If you intend to submit a design, please DM via Discord or email your work to one of the officers when it is ready. We look forward to seeing your creative talents shine!
