[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the commiseration and advice, from OP. We gave our son the same advice to leave his door open, but according to him, “no one” in his dorm/on his hall does that. Both he and his roommate keep the door closed and he says all the doors on his hall are always closed. I like the idea of him getting a job or volunteering on his light class days - it will keeo him busy and hopefully lead to meeting other students and hopefully at some point some of these connections will lead to friendship. It’s really hard to hear your kid so lonely. Spouse and I both commented after this call that we remember a big adjustment to college was having to be around other people all the time- so we were pretty surprised that our son seems to be having the exact opposite experience.
