CONTACT ING YOUR ROOMMATE
One of the biggest transitions many new students make is going from aprivate room at home to a shared room on-campus. Most students enjoy
living with a roommate and some roommates turn into life-long friends.
When you contact your roommate for the first time, expect there will be
differences between the two of you. The goal of your first conversation isnot to become best friends, but to establish a solid base of
communication you can build on once you arrive to campus.
Try these topics to get your first conversation rolling….
· What activities do you want to get involved with on-campus?· What are your studying/majoring in?
· What do you like to do for fun?· Who will bring what to campus (TV, stereo, etc.)?
· What are your tastes in music, art, sports, etc.?
TIP: BE CAREFUL NOT TO JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS BASED ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
