These might be a little long, I am going to loop in @MichaelDHellman for his input on the text.

Yeah I'd revise with more of an eye towards brevity. While I like the frequent use of adjectives, I think it'd be beneficial to trim some of that, it feels a little too much like we're fluffing it up. Focus on the content, describe what each division does, don't worry about the stuff like "By ensuring the reliability and functionality of these platforms, ACM Development plays a crucial role in enhancing the member experience and fostering a connected community." in Dev's description. Just tie it together with something like "Through these and many other projects ACM Development helps build a better campus community", for example.
