Meeting people can be difficult when you’re starting a new chapter in your life on a campus of over 50,000 students. Balancing work, class, homework and a social life can feel overwhelming and even impossible.
If you’re trying to find new people to connect with, joining a registered student organization on campus is the best way to go. The University has over 1,800 RSOs that focus on sports, professionals, art, culture and more. RSOs are a great way to find people in a more casual setting outside of class to unwind.
RSOs are a great way to explore hobbies and try things you’ve never done before, such as skydiving, crocheting, learning ASL, life drawing or even joining a dance group.
Love the month of October or want to explore filmmaking? There’s a spot for everyone on campus. Looking for a place to explore your niche interest? There’s probably an RSO for that too. RSOs are a great way to find like-minded people looking to delve deeper into their interests and find a community.
RSOs are easiest to explore on Quad Day at the beginning of each school year, so be sure to check them out to find your community and meet your new best friends.
