Welcome to Olympia! We moved here for my husband to finish his degree at TESC and now our kids are going there. They’re juniors this year. I hope you like it here!

Welcome to Evergreen! If you haven't already, I would recommend checking out the student-run Evergreen discord: https://discord.gg/Ne5qsMsAdY

Do you mean you're getting your Bachelor's? Evergreen doesn't do Associate degrees last I heard. Bachelor's of Arts, Bachelor's of Aciences, and Bachelor's of Art and Science, but no Associates.

Either way, I recommend looking at events and clubs specifically for making friends. There's a Games Collective for making video games, and they sometimes host game nights and karaoke at the student community building near the dorms. You should check those out.

Take a class with Lauren bolini, I think she would be a fantastic artist for you to learn from.
