Which Finance Clubs to Join at Columbia

I am transferring to Columbia University as a sophomore this Fall and will be majoring in Financial Economics. I was an analyst at my previous school's Equity and Alternative Investment Society. I currently trade my own TD account and want to do IB after graduation. I was hoping to get advice from current Columbia students or graduates about the best finance-oriented clubs to join. I am going to apply for the Lion Fund but I was wondering if there are any other clubs I should be looking out for.
