My advice to anyone going to U of I is to join a Fraternity or Sorority. My roommate my first year bitched all the time how he would never join a fraternity cause he cant understand paying for friends and other things along these lines. Well let me tell you he sat on his ass and played playstation all year while I (joined a great fraternity) met a ton of great people in the frat and then networked from there to get to know a ton of people in every frat and sorority at the college. My roommate dropped out and went to western were crazily enough he joined a frat! If you want to meet a ton of people really fast, go to a lot of parties, work at a bar( big plus) join, trust me. Plus the people you meet will help you many times over down the road for all kinds of things including future jobs. Also, go around to all of the houses during rush cuase if your a pretty cool person they will all bend over backwards to make an impression ie free booze, food, and other perks..
