Friends, Not Followers: Building Real Connections on Campus
Room 1104 (Lift 19, near LT-A)
It’s easy to look connected— IG, hall activities, WhatsApp groups—but still feel like you don’t really belong. In this interactive workshop, you’ll explore what real connection looks like for you, learn simple ways to move beyond polite small talk, and practice small actions that help friendships grow naturally over time.
You’ll also learn how to handle common friendship stressors in university— one-sided effort, misunderstandings, or drifting apart—so you can build relationships that feel genuine, supportive, and good for your wellbeing.
