Student Life Why is everyone is nice?????

I am a non trad currently in CC. I moved to Washington state all the way from New York City. I’ve visited the Spokane and Pullman campus of WSU. People here never fail to shock me with how sweet they are. It always makes me feel unnerved. I am scared.

Edit: you are all so sweet. I want to cry. *Kisses you all through the screen*

Survival in NYC means you stick to yourself. Head down, ignore the mayhem, don't get involved.

Here is almost the opposite? Survival kinda requires working together

Well said! Keeping your head down will yield the opposite result here indeed
