MSU IS big. As we were walking to the car after his orientation in June he said, "I think I'll end up just staying in my room all the time," scaring the heck out of me. When I asked him why, he said "too many people". He is introverted, but not extremely so.

He is in the Lyman Briggs College and has all his classes except for one in Holmes Hall, his dorm. In some respects it has the atmosphere of a small college. Within the first week he learned that many guys on his floor play soccer, and they formed an intramural team. After the first month I think his nervousness was gone.

Your DS should have plenty of opportunities in theatre and music at the small colleges. I envy you--always hoped one of my sons would excel in fine arts. You'll get that, plus a scientist!
