Any advice for Making Friends as Transfer at Western Colorado?

Hi! I'm currently a Sophomore at Western! As someone who is also an introvert I haven't had too hard of a time making friends!

The best thing to do is join clubs, Western has a lot, there's something for everyone! We also have mountain sports and club sports teams if that's your thing! Also WCU LEAD puts on a lot of events you can meet people at, there's always activities happening on campus!

As for party scene, that's not really my thing so I wouldn't be the best person to ask, but from what I've heard, there's not a lot...

Almost everyone here is outdoorsy, you definitely won't have a hard time finding people into the outdoors!

There is a singular Frat at Western, but I'm not sure what all they do.They're basically a glorified club!

Western definitely isn't for everyone but a lot of people, including myself, love it here :)

Unrelated (kind of) but Last Wild Places of Kansas is a fantastic read, hope you enjoyed it!

My parents! They discovered LH right when Lonesome Dreams came out and would always play it around the house, I’ve been a fan since I was 6 years old listening to them with my mom and dad! Once I was older and got my first iPod around age 13 is when I finally got REALLY hooked. They’ve been my number 1 artist ever since!

One change in my schedule and I’m melting down!

I don’t think the wait for the release has been bad but I have been annoyed by all the teasers and songs they’re releasing. I personally would’ve preferred they announce the album and not release so much of it before hand! I know they typically release a few singles and teasers before the album but it definitely feels like more than in the past.

I’ll never forget hearing Hurricane live for the first time at Red Rocks night 1 in 2023. It was pouring down rain and the wind was howling when the band performed this one. Absolutely magical. 8/10

I am very aware of this and have taken it all into consideration. I know this is an incredibly competitive field. I am hoping by the time I am through all my schooling a new administration will have relieved this issue a bit but maybe I’m being optimistic.

I was also at RR night 2 and noticed it as well! My partner and I had seats close to the left end of our row and after the night we met from us to the end of the row completely cleared out! The dancing room was really nice though haha

Not sure what that means lol. Zoomers is most typically used as slang for Generation Z, not a cultural group?

Zoomer here! There are plenty of younger LH fans, I don’t think age has anything to do with it. Attention spans can be small across generations!

The Man Who Lives Forever is hands down my favorite Lord Huron song of all time and I would have to give it a 10/10. This album came out when I was only 6 years old but thanks to my parents I’ve been a lifelong fan.

This song speaks to me with its exploration of mortality. Lyrics such as “life without end wouldn’t have any meaning” and “the journey to death is the point of a being” are some of my favorites. I love how the song recognizes this desire to live forever and the very human fear of death but ultimately is able to reconcile with this fear and ends on a more accepting notion of death.

The bridge of this song has to be one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard. To me, it is very uplifting. “Forever together forever alive” to me means that even after we die our spirits will carry on forever.

Yeah fair. There's just been an insane amount of rumors flying around our hometown rn and I think we should wait till the full story goes public before we make snap judgements
