I had no idea freshmen could get single rooms

I know I am weird, but I have found all of my better friends and acquaintances outside of my dorm/apartment. I am also (or at least was) very shy. The one thing I wish I had done my Freshman year was to join a club or two and stick with it. If it doesn’t work out, pick another. Clubs are great and even if you can’t find a club that interests you, you can create your own. At Santa Cruz, it is VERY easy to do this, and it just so happens that if you have a narrow interest, there are probably a dozen or more other students who also share your narrow interest and would be thrilled to join your club.
