Social

Meeting new people in college can be one of the most exciting and the most nerve racking things. Especially having no idea who will be your new room mate for the next year. Will this person become a best friend or will they become an enemy? Everyone has a best friend or someone they hate to leave from high school. It's always so sad to watch someone so close move so far away, but its exciting to start a new life at the same time. When being in high school they give teens many clubs to choose from to keep busy and to stay involved. Meeting friends is a lot easier while being in high school because a lot of kids have grown up with the people they pass in the hallways. College is a scary place for many incoming freshman. They barely know where anything is and have no one to walk around with to meet people. That's why getting in clubs in college are crucial. College clubs and activities is one thing I would personally never pass up. Greek life is one major student activity I would hate to miss. Sororities are an awesome way to meet friends and to have fun! College has it's up and downs, but everything will be better by getting involved with student organiztions and clubs.

  2. This post does a nice job of blending high school and college. Can you find an internet source to link us to?

    As a suggestion, one former student from MHS set up a Facebook group for her incoming class at a particular university. In doing so, she met many friends before she even got to campus. What a neat idea!
