Freshman with an interest in hedge funds.

Hi, Today I found WSO and was immediately hooked on it, especially when it seems like a goldmine of information. After a gap year last year, I finally took an interest in hedge funds and would like to join one someday. However, as I would be an international freshman in Minerva Schools at KGI, which is a new college, it seems like I would have to put in a lot of efforts just to land an internship with a local finance institution this year. Btw, I will reside in SF, California, so if you could inform me of some relevant clubs, organizations or conferences then I would really appreciate.
