What are we, anyway?

For the first month after the new semester starts, my calendar is typically decked out for every meal — plans with friends I haven’t seen in a while and dinners with professors I have to catch up with, brunches with clubs and girls’ nights. A month filled with, “Tell me about your summer,” “Do you think you know what you’re doing after college?” and “Where are you staying this year?” And just as quickly as the calendar fills up, it dwindles. Lunches turn into quick conversations in the hallway and dinners morph into waving at WU. It’s understandable: life gets hectic, priorities change, and the weight of classes and extracurriculars begins to hang heavy. Maintaining friendships gets more and more buried on the to-do list. Most people I talk to on campus are knowledgeable, kind and wonderful — how do I decide which friendships to invest in? Which ones will last when I graduate? Who do I want to see at the ten-year reunion, and who do I want to see over Christmas break?
