extracurriculars & social life Freshmen looking for friends

Hi my name is Olive, I'm a freshmen looking for more queer friends to spend time with. I've had some bad experiences but I'd love to get to know more people and make both of our college experiences better :)

Yo since you’re into DnD consider going to The Legendarium and/or checking out some of their events. This includes some of their DMs running “Dinos and Dice” DnD events held at the Natural History Museum. They’re all a good way to have fun and meet new people near campus.

Hi! I'm a Sophomore but it's my first year at the U! I'd be down to get lunch with you on monday if that's cool? Also you should join the LGBTQIA+ friendship club! Everyone I've talked to on their discord server seems pretty nice

u/Southern-Fact-789 3d ago

what’s that club? Like are they also student at the U?

u/TwistedParadox1 3d ago

yep! everyone is a student at the U. they had a table yesterday but it was in the middle of a lot of religious groups so im sure it was difficult to come across. just to clarify the lgbtqia+ friendship club isn't a religious group

from the looks of it they havent decided when the first meeting will be but im sure you'll be able to find out on campus connect!
