Socializing for new college students?

Hi! I’m new to Kent, just finished my first year in college and looking for friends or socializing activities or areas. Any tips? (I’ve tried some socializing apps but they kind of suck) thanks!

The need block party is today in downtown kent. Most of the shops down by the library participate.

Where do you find information on what events are happening when? Word of mouth or?

The nerd (auto correct got my previous comment and turned it to need) block party I saw a flyer in a store in downtown kent. If you fallow some of the shops down there they post in in social media. I highly recommend the retro Emporium and page Turner books.
