friendless freshman

@student5436 Starting over in a new place is hard, and you aren’t alone! My S19 also has a situation where the suitemates have very different interests and friend circles. Some things I advised: Eat in your dorm dining hall (you start seeing the same faces every day - and don’t skip meals there!), study in the common room of your dorm and say hi to anyone who walks in, ask a classmate to go get coffee afterwards and talk about the class, go to the rec center and talk to the person on the machine next to you. It is early, and it will get better!
