Answer
The Tatkon Center for New Students offers many activities to meet new people during Orientation Week and your first semester. I remember meeting many friends at an ice cream social in my dorm during my first week. All first-year students live on North Campus their first year, which fosters a great sense of community and helps people form strong bonds with members of their class, as your friends live no more than five minutes away. I have also made a lot of friends through my club softball team. I recommend joining clubs (either social or academic) to find people with interests similar to yours.
