<p>MushaboomBlue: I am a quiet (near-antisocial) guy who has extreme interests in both Electrical Engineering (Railroad Tech) and Music. Therefore, I sought college as a way to start over from my previous high school life with people that I don’t know and perhaps start a band with my taste of music. I’m not sure if attending Rutgers or going out of state would solve that problem.</p>
<p>Hi PWireBrake: Are you thinking about minoring in music? Maybe you should think about joining the Musicians Guild here at Rutgers. It’s a club here that allows musicians (you don’t have to be a Mason Gross student) to come together and perform. It will give you an opportunity to meet other people with similar music interest. </p>
<p>I answered your question about housing on Busch or College Avenue on a previous thread just now, but I’d like to add to that. Have you thought about Special Interest Housing? On College Avenue there is a dorm, Demarest Hall, that has sections catered to specific interests like Gender and Sexuality Studies, Creative Writing, Performing Arts, and even Music Appreciation! </p>
<p>Maybe you might want to check that out (especially if you are “open minded”). It’s a smaller community so you will get to know people there better.</p>
<p>I can understand if you want to stay in-state. I’m not very social either and refused to go to a school that wasn’t in Jersey or New York. It is very understandable.</p>
<p>Thanks MushaboomBlue! I actually wrote about Musicians Guild in my app essay, but I’m not interested in minoring in music. As for staying in-state, I’m inclining on doing this so my mom won’t have to cry if something happens to me out of state esp. in Buffalo.</p>
