Hi all,
Recently I have been trying to decide between Bucknell and Penn State. I am pretty shy, and sometimes I have a hard time connecting with people and making friends. For Penn State, I am worried that because of its size, I will be “left behind” socially if I don’t immediately start forming connections. Penn State students and alumni: does it seem as though a majority of students know each other prior to the first day? Because if so, I could see this intimidating me. BucknelI students: is Bucknell a welcoming environment? I obviously know that the colleges I am considering are very different and have different strengths and weaknesses. Thank you! I’ll appreciate all and any responses.
