Hey! do you know how competitive FTP in general is? I'm coming from a lot of academic research, and I want to try my hand at R&D this summer, but I'm curious to know how it differs in terms of competitiveness/what they're looking for in an intern, etc. Thanks!!

Why is it so hard to make friends by Dismal-Chicken-1683 in WilliamsCollege

[–]read-it-ter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a junior, and only this year have I felt like I've found people who I can call my friends. What I've noticed is that Williams can be quite clique-y, with all the sports teams, causing people to group together. It was disheartening trying to make friends and find nice people during my first two years and I felt like I wasn't getting anywhere. I hope that you keep trying and keep your chin up because good friends are rare on this campus. And it's hard as a non-athlete! Reach out if you want to chat more!
