[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a big 10 school. It can be very lonely if you don’t meet your people and you can definitely get lost in the shuffle. I think he either needs to get really get involved in something (join a club and take a big role in it - like student government) or think about a smaller school. [/quote] How is this the answer? Transferring to a smaller school is having to start over again and doesn't solve the social issue that seems to be bothering him because he still needs to find an outlet there too. Caveat - transferring to a school where a friend(s) go.[/quote] Transferring anywhere is hard. But at a school with only 2-6K students, it will be easier to find a group that you like. Easier to do activities that interest you and find friends that way. And your major will not have 4K other sophomores in it, so classes will be much smaller---you will see a lot of the same people in all your courses or at TA/Office hours. [/quote]
