How should an Aggie grad with a demanding job protect a social life after moving?

Quick answer

Do not depend on spontaneous free time. Grant likes putting one or two reliable social anchors on the calendar—perhaps a midweek apartment or fitness activity and a weekend Aggie, church, volunteer or recreation event. If work travel is heavy, the neighborhood and building should make social participation easy when you are home. Consistency matters more than filling every night.
