Question Strike closing buildings

1 Upvotes

I heard there is another strike next Wednesday again?

Does anyone know if the buildings stay open so that people can go study in them when there is a strike on?

Will the O’Connor learning centre buidling be open? Or Quinn or Sutherland?

If anyone knows in general or from last week please let me know thanks!

Question I’m starting university next year and I really want to be the fun / approachable type of person. what can i do?

1 Upvotes

maybe you know someone that is just easy/ fun to talk to and everyone can say a good word about them. what do they do? what makes you likeable and approachable and easy to connect with in college??

by the way, i’m not saying i want to change my personality or anything about myself to fit into an idea of the “perfect friend” or whatever. i’m just curious what helps you build a lot of connections in college, and what makes it hard.

like for example approaching people yourself first, or being interested in what the other person is saying, getting involved in a lot of social events.

basically what are the dos and donts if i want to build good connections and relationships with people in college?

Other Meetups

Ive been seeing a lot of people on this subreddit say that they don’t have many friends or that their shy or other stuff and I’ve been thinking what if people did a meet up, a big place where everyone brings a name tag or something similar and have to walk up to other people and introduce themselves, even if it doesn’t work for everyone I’m sure atleast a couple of yous will be happier to have met someone new no?

General Anyone lowk hate it here?

19 Upvotes

Im a fresher and its Week 6 and I have made 2 very surface level friends - one living 3 hrs away and then the other only being here for a semester. My attendance is shit and I'm realising I hate my course but its too late to quit now. (I'm doing education & modern language) Campus just feels super lonely and I am struggling to talk to people - I've gone to some society events but haven't talked to many people. I also went to a pub quiz and I litch couldn't talk to anyone except for one friend. I was so awkward except for during the quiz I think I've lost all social skills..
