joiners
Those who enroll
Joiners are people who readily join organizations, clubs, or groups.
The term often carries a mild implication of indiscriminate enthusiasm—someone who signs up for everything: He's a joiner; he belongs to six different civic organizations.
In British usage, a joiner is also a woodworker who makes doors, window frames, and other fitted components—distinguished from a carpenter by working on finer interior fittings.
