Having a social school life will make a student’s college career easier for many reasons. For example, reduced sense of loneliness and working with others on assignments. This is why a student should get involved in student organizations to broaden the number of people they can meet. Joining a student organization can benefit a student by developing their soft skills, gaining a sense of community, and leadership skills, learning how to work as a team, networking, and engaging with different groups of people. Aside from learning important skills, a student will have fun because of the sense of community and relationships that they made.
