How and when to get to know professors, expectations, participating in class, collaborating with other students, asking for help and more. ❖ Social Life (on 10/6)—How to balance new friends and romantic relationships when nobody knows your language and your home. Getting comfortable. Learning social norms. Managing expectations. Feeling lonely.
