7. Love Thy Neighbor! If you're living on campus, get to know your neighbors. After all, you are going to be living next to them for a whole year. Make friends with them, they can always be a huge help, from homework to hardware and everything in between. In my dorm anytime there is a spider or something is broken, we call on our neighbors to help us out. Anytime they need something cleaned or help with homework, we make time for each other. Even if your neighbors aren't your best friends, at least make nice with them. The last thing you need is an enemy living next door to you who can be as obnoxious and distracting as they want if they want to mess with you.
6. Goin' Greek! If you're in college you should definitely consider going Greek, but only if it's for you. It's a really great way to get involved and get to know a ton of people. Since I started pledging I've met so many new people and had a ton of great experiences. I even got to go pumpkin "acquiring" with a few other Greek organizations.

But make sure Greek Life is definitely something that you want to do. It takes up a lot of your time, and for some of you, it might not be worth it. But definitely check out rush before you decide that going Greek isn't for you.
