Their Aim Is True: Meet the Zicklin Students Reviving the Baruch Archery Club
June 25, 2026Take an accounting major from Brooklyn, an international business major from Queens, an aspiring CPA from Ghana, a future HR manager, and what do you get? The officers of the Baruch Archery Club.
After a COVID-era pause, the club is back on target. Originally founded in the 1960s, it resumed practices in the spring 2026 semester after three years of effort by former and current club officers. The Archery Club offers students a chance to relax from their studies while learning a unique sport that rewards focus, precision, and patience.

All of the officers hail from the Zicklin School of Business: president Clarissa Tanuwidjaja, an accounting major; vice president Lisbeth Tenesaca, an international business major; treasurer Prince Manukure, an accounting major from Ghana who arrived in New York in 2022; and secretary Fiona Wang, a human resources management major from Queens.
The officers said the club offers more than recreation—an alternative to the more common, business-focused clubs, a unique activity, and a chance to meet “other Bearcats” from outside the Zicklin School. “We also have a few coaches who are Zicklin alumni,” Clarissa added, “so it’s been a great way to network with alumni who are actually working in business.”
Archery has even helped Prince professionally. During an interview for an internship, he said, a recruiter focused on his archery involvement, saying it “caught her eye” because it stood out from typical activities listed on résumés.
Looking ahead, the club hopes to revive intercollegiate competitions that previous members once enjoyed—aiming not just to rebuild a club, but to restore a campus tradition.
