First of all, I haven’t read previous answers. But. I want you to know straight away - Barnard is nowhere near cliquish. In fact, about a month ago I was having this conversation with someone, and we couldn’t come up with a single example of a clique.

I’m not a polisci major, but I want to tell you that classes differ very much. My econ professor insists we keep a discussion even though there are some fifty kids in her class. Well, econ is as close I came to a social science thus far.
If I had to give you a piece of advice, it’d be to toughen it out. Courses have a tendency to become increasingly more interesting as semester progresses. And use CULPA. In my experience, it is usually pretty accurate.

Meeting guys is easy as long as you join clubs. I think there’s a polisci club that has a giant number of participants. Also, you can join whatever you want - people here are so amazing!
