[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had to re-read the OP.  Either very few posters understood the point of the OP or OP did not make it clear until late 8 or the posts.  OP, tell your kid to find some low-key, low-stairs club like Ultimate Frisbee or stage/tech crew for drama.  Something that blows off steam or is not a go-getter activity and see if any of those kids are willing to take some down-time.  I went to U Chicago many years ago and I found friends who valued downtime and going out to a show or grabbing a sandwich.  Your kid probably just needs to look and get past the facade of looking busy that a lot of these T15 students may think you’re supposed to have.  I don’t agree with those who say they should transfer.  Just look around and find the slackers.  There have to be some somewhere![/quote]

Thank you - this is exactly what they’re doing. Actually has found the most traction off campus making friends that don’t go to kid’s school. Or are decades older but share common interests (hypothetical examples: kite surfing. NASCAR)[/quote]
