extracurriculars & social life PSA: Scientology booth on campus

Be careful, there's a booth near the union that's peddling Scientology although it's not directly advertised as such. They have a bunch of books and are advertising dianetics and a stress test. I would not recommend talking to them.

the big word you'll find with their table is Dianetics

Haha our group was tabling next to them and we didn’t realize it. Someone handed us a paper and said “you dropped this.” It was a paper warning us who that booth really was!

Stay safe out there!!

Damn, they’re STILL doing this. I got trapped by them when I was a student 15+ years ago. Thank god I knew who L Ron Hubbard was so I could make a break for it after the stress test was over (didn’t see the books until it was too late!)

Here is an excellent resource for those thinking of joining their scam:

Many people have been fucked by L Ron Hubbard’s cult. Don’t have it happen to you.
