The Fall semester has officially started, and college life is thriving again. Going back to school in person has been a bit of a social shock for some students, especially after almost two years of Zoom classes. Personally, it’s been kind of weird to have to walk around campus and socialize with people face to face again, and I know a lot of other students can relate to that feeling too. But that doesn’t mean I’m not excited to get back into the groove of college, and to get the full university experience again. Even though college can be stressful when it comes to the educational aspect of things, it can also be fun. If you’re a freshman, or even a senior who wants to make more friends, here are some ways that you can become more social this semester!
- Join Clubs
Joining clubs is a good way to not just meet people, but to also be involved with your school. Some can even gain credibility for graduate school applications, if you decide to take that path.
- Greek Life
If joining a fraternity or sorority is something that you are interested in doing, it’s one of the best ways to make friends and become involved in events.
- Go To Sporting Events
Football games and other sports events are a great way to show school spirit, and to hang out with friends while doing so.
- Join The Student Government
If being a part of the student body is something you’re interested in, or it is associated with your major, it’s a good way to make a change while being involved with school issues.
