Why is repeating the same social activity better than constantly trying new events after moving?

Quick answer

Because friendships usually grow from familiarity, not one-time exposure. Seeing the same people at the same apartment event series, gym class, Aggie gathering, church group, volunteer shift or sports league lets strangers become familiar faces and familiar faces become friends. Grant would rather see an Aggie grad consistently attend a few good things than collect dozens of unrelated one-off events.
