NU Declassified: A New Twist on Speed Dating

Can you form a friendship with someone you’ve never met in person? During Winter Welcome, residential services brought back speed friending, an event that’s based on speed dating. New students participated in the event with other people from their dorms and residential areas. Students like freshman Natalie Norquist enjoyed meeting new people and putting a face to the names in her building. Others, like freshman Mika Ng, created long-lasting friendships from speed friending during Wildcat Welcome this past September.
