The Dominican Father Tommaso Caccini (d. 1648), most noted for his help in prosecuting Galileo preached a sermon at the Santa Maria Novella in Florence on the subject of Joshua 10 on December 20, 1614 which insisted that "geometry is of the devil," and that "mathematics should be banished as the authors of all heresies." The church authorities promoted Caccini thereafter to the Master and Bachelor of the Santa Maria sopra Minerva convent in Rome.
Of course, during ancient and Medieval times astronomers were referred to as mathematicians as can be seen by another comment by Augustine ("One does not read in the Gospel that the Lord said: ‘I will send you the Paraclete who will teach you about the course of the sun and moon.’ For he willed to make them Christians, not mathematicians") and Caccini's sermon was directed in opposition to Galileo... but why take chances?

As for making friends at college: I'm an INTJ too. If I made friends and got through college, I'm pretty sure you will too. When I first went to college, half the people in my hallway, including my roommate, had already been there for a few days (for sports, etc.) and made friends, and I still managed to become friends with some of them. In fact, my best friend turned out to be one of the people in my hall who was already there and had already made friends.
When you first get there, pretty much all the other freshmen will be anxious and desperate for friends too, and people tend to make friends pretty quickly in that environment. If you find a church or campus fellowship and get involved in a Bible study or something, that's a good way to find friends too.
