Meet People and Get Involved
Actively developing a social group and getting involved will greatly help you adjust and feel more comfortable in your new life. Don’t wait for a social life to come to you. Make time each week to go out and attend events, take part in sports activities, invite a friend for a meal or a movie. Join a group or organization, attend or join a church, temple, or synagogue if you wish. Be active in building your social network. Don’t be afraid to begin conversations, extend invitations and if necessary, make the first move. Here are just some of the campus resources that may be helpful as you develop relationships:
