Getting involved

Hi all,
I’m two days into my freshman year at Penn state. I’m an introvert, and I’m trying to think of ways to make friends. I’m definitely going to join some clubs and get involved that way, but does anyone have any tips specific to Penn State for making friends? Or a good club to meet a lot of people?
Thanks!

Get a doorstop to keep your door open as a way to invite conversation. And just remember that, except for the local kids, most freshmen are probably feeling like you. (A few hundred students from the nearby high school already know their way around and have a network of friends…but other kids don’t.) Step outside your comfort zone, invite people on your floor to go to dining hall with you, and put yourself out there. Clubs will help!

Say yes to everything, someone is asking you to see the soccer game? say yes. Someone is asking if you want to go to the hub? Say yes. Even if you don’t feel like it always say yes, because you have really awesome experiences that way, and meet cool people along the way.

You can also PM me, I’m a freshman here and I’m always down to hang.
