To be blunt, I think I shy kid who commutes will have a very hard time making friends.

Even fricking tools can find other fricking tools in a dorm.

Don't think LSU is the school for him. Needs to go to a smaller school

the dorm would be my idea
met a lot of people in the dorm

^ This for sure. Suggest he tour other schools. It honestly sounds like he is set up for social disaster at LSU

He could go hang around the Bus station on Florida Blvd -

Very true, potheads are much higher on the college social scale than quiet antisocials

Do you know whether or not the kid has Asperger's or high functioning autism? That could explain a lot, as those who suffer from these disorders often times lead very austere lives.
LSU is definitely not the school for this person. If his family can afford it he should apply to schools in the Pacific Northwest. That region of the country values differences and individuality much more than the South.

Commuting is a terrible idea
He wont make friend and will likely flunk/drop out

Why are you trying to find your neighbors kid friends?
Posted on 1/12/14 at 11:10 am to RyseofRome
Get him to move out, get a gym membership, and join the OT-swole club. He'll be swimming in poon.

OP is fishy.

Commuters have no friends past high school. LSU is a huge place. You make real college friends in the off hours doing things you do in the off hours.

Dont have anything helpful to add but just want to say kudos to you for trying to help this kid out. What you do could change his entire life for the better.

One of neighbors kid is a senior in high school and he has no friends. he just sits at home all day. He will be entering LSU soon, and I want him to meet some friends there too( He will be commuting). Do you know some organizations that would be good for him to join? I suggested youth group( easy poon). Any other ideas?
Well, for the time he has left in high school, literally look left or right and say hi. For when he gets to LSU, literally look left or right and say hi. It is really easy to meet people in school with so much in common with everyone around you.

Reggies on thursday nights
Bogies on saturadays
Join your major's professional organization and be involved
Get involved with a campus church group
Join the band if he can play an instrument
Rush if he can't
Go to the campus organizations fair and join some groups that share his interests
Join an intramural sports team
Sit next to a good looking woman in class and talk to her and form a study group with her. Even if she doesn't date him, she will introduce him to her friends if he's not weird. This won't work with every girl, but it will work with more than a few, so if you do this in every class, it will work at least once or twice.
Get a job so he can get an apartment in a year or two.
TALK to people. Most people are nice and enjoy talking to others, especially about themselves.
Just relax and don't be so focused on your schoolwork that you forget the social importance of college life. If you don't make an effort to "smell the roses" if you will, you risk college passing you by and being nothing but a stressful period of missed opportunities and tests. If you do what i proscribe, this won't happen.

For 1. Don't fricking commute. Move in a dorm. I met a shite ton of people during my freshman year in the dorm.
Being in the dorms is the best way to meet a ton people. Commuting is the fricking worst, he'll never experience the most important parts of going to college.
