[quote=Anonymous]My son is the same (he’s a sophomore). He did join a club this year which gives him more forced social interactions, plus the club sometimes hosts parties. I also think college isn’t as social generally as back in my day. I don’t mean parties, those existed in my day, still exist now and likely always will at college - I mean that kids aren’t as social/friendly in their dorms and hallways, in the dining halls, so on, because they all have their phones and laptops. Phones give them an excuse to sit alone when having lunch (vs when I was in college, you’d have to meet up with people for lunch), phones allow them to watch a movie on their own (vs we’d gather in the lounge to watch Seinfeld together). I think many kids are less social at college than we used to be. [/quote]
