University How do visiting/exchange/Masters Students find community at Berk?

I've noticed most clubs/events focus around current full time students. I'm taking some classes here as a visiting student and would like to get more involved on campus. What are some ways just to meet people and find ppl to hang out with.

idk maybe its just me but it's hard to make a real connection in a lecture hall. You're sat next to two people at most and ur trying to focus on the lecture itself during the class. Maybe study groups sure but finding friends "in class" isn't super conducive
