I'm a junior (transfer student) doing computer engineering & EE and it's been tough for me a well. I've been trying to force myself out there and joining clubs and participating in as many events as possible. But I think my social anxiety is really preventing me from becoming close friends with anyone on campus. I joined the men's rowing club here and while I've been making tons of progress physicially (top boat!), I haven't been able to become close with anyone on the team. It seems like my teammates are all close with each other, and I'm isolated from that group. I try to participate in class discussions but that's been pretty shitty. I sit in the front (because I'm a nerd) and whenever the prof asks the class a question, I usually know the answer but when I try saying it, I block a good 90% of the time. It's shit.
