Leap out of comfort zone to meet friends

By Jess Salisbury · Wednesday, Sept. 26, 2012

No man (or woman) is an island, and that holds even more truth when it comes to the college years. You may never feel as vivacious or willing to experience all life has to offer, but it can be difficult to make memories without a couple comrades by your side.
