I see these groups with long white skirts and stuff going to these events and girls on insta with leopard prints last night like what is this and why am I unaware of this? I’ve been here for 6 weeks and have not found a group of friends . things are extremely lonely here at Duke. the few ppl that I know I text them what are your plans this weekend and no one even replies to me and then they post on social media. I rushed a club and didn’t get selected. I feel so isolated and do not know what I am doing wrong.

I have an idea for an organization that will be very beneficial for both students and staff. However, before I design and implement it I want to be sure that there is interest among faculty and staff. Would it be a good idea to just email random staff? Or maybe just go into random offices and ask? What should I do? I know this idea has great potential.
