I am starting a Libertarian club on campus.

This seems like a great idea and I support what you are trying to do, but I can see how it might be difficult without someone to back your organization. What direction are you planning on going with the club? It would be a lot easier for people to make recommendations if we knew what exactly it was that you're trying to accomplish and what makes you different from other "free speech" school orgs.

For example I plan on structuring meetings by having a topic of the week, introduce legislation corresponding(ideally the ones kept out of media like securing America’s future act), have an open discussion on people’s stance regarding the legislation/issue, and discuss if we can take action how can we raise awareness and do so. For meetings that would have a guest speaker it would be in place of legislation. I am a strong believer me in free thought, and I want to essentially offer people a source for information. I don’t want to be affiliated with YAL, because I don’t want to have to oblige by their focus of the semester and endorse all that they do. I really want to give people a place where they can feel free, and fight for that freedom. There is more to being free than freedom of speech.
