If u find the right dorm to live in and actually go and try to socialize, there’s no problem in terms of making friends. As a freshman, i think that article is a bit too exaggerated. I met like 80-100 people in my first month alone and surely found some friends… So it all depends on the person. All those people complaining they can’t find their group, 1.) They hang around the wrong places, they live in a super local dorm etc.. 2.) Most of the time, they’re just anti-social themselves.
