About Us
SMU Literati is a student club under the Arts and Cultural Fraternity (ACF) cluster that specialises in literature and poetry. In the recent years, our club has also expanded to other mediums of literature, from art and films, to music and even pop culture! We strive to cater to the interests of students where literature is concerned.
