Making damn good friends at college isn’t hard – you just have to be yourself and be respectful. Also, remember, don’t be pushy!
Here are a few places to meet your people:
1. Your Dorm
Your college roommate and/or suitmate will either be your first friend or your first enemy at college. If luck is on your side, you will skip the college roommate from hell drama. Great college roommates are a blessing.
2. Classes
Classes are usually the best place to make college friends. You see your classmates at least once a week. It’s the perfect setting for forming friendships.
3. Library
Depending on the college, the library will either be the hanging-out spot or the most deserted spot on campus. However, it is possible to meet new people.
4. Academic and Voluntary Groups
These are perfect settings for forming great friendships or at least networking since members usually share a common goal.
