Building Community
My biggest issue with going back to school is being able to relate to the other students. I am a pretty good student (even at 42 years old); however, I am having some pretty big challenges as I don't have a sense of community where I attend classes since I am an older student. I am looking for a group of non-traditional students I can hang out with to help prompt a feeling of belonging. The people where I live are friendly; however, they are also very topical and do not reach out to newcomers very well. The last thing I want to do is drop of college as it doesn't provide an overall feeling of community.

This online thing may not be doing very well since it doesn't provide ample justification for what people really need. We are social beings!
