Friends are important to college because what do people say you do in college. Get an education and make connections. But if you just do one of those things there is nothing to show for. Without the education you won’t know what career to pursue or what you even may think you want to do. But if you don’t have the friends and people to help you through it then you’ll have a very difficult time as well. Stress. Confusion. Depression. All of these are real problems and they are very much apparent in classes everywhere and in every education level. Friends can be tutors, stress relievers and even saviors when it comes to all of this. The education is worth nothing if you did not make a friend along the way.
