1. Agreed, I'm just more concerned about what to do for the half of the summer that I wont be in class. 2. I don't think there's a study skills class here, are there any online courses you would reccommend? 3. At this point I have no clue why I'm doing this. Probably because it seems like the only career path that I can even attempt to follow? 4. I had actually connected with a PHD student here who I knew through friends, but his lab didn't need any extra help at the moment. This school is so big that I feel like it's impossible to randomly connect with people in my department. Even most of the big CS clubs on campus even have strict admissions processes with less than 10% admit rates. I really don't feel connected with the department/program/faculty at all.

1. If you don't know anybody around town, maybe get a job to meet some people? Not anything fancy, just a summer job. If they are all full, it might be worth thinking more about going home, and you might have better luck working there. 2. Maybe start with this one? http://calnewport.com/books/how-to-win-at-college/ http://calnewport.com/books/how-to-win-at-college/ 3. There's only one person who can figure this out. This is part of the reason I suggest an unrelated job. Sometimes finding out what we don't want to do can be just as useful. 4. Is there some sort of more general advisor for the university that might help you?
