Another aspect of the high school to college transition that takes effort is staying in touch with old friends. The traditional telephone call or written mail is a great way to stay in touch. Mail is cumbersome and takes a long time. Telephone calls are expensive to the broke college student. The most common way to keep in touch is simple according to our survey.
Most people feel that with the accessibility of email, they are able to keep in touch easier.
College is the new chapter in our lives. From high school we can hold onto old friends, but we have to adjust to new habits. After all this isn't high school anymore.
