[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter has been in school for a month and she has been asked out a couple of times by different guys.  The same thing has occurred to two of her roommates.  It is not as bleak as it sounds.  [/quote]

What kind of school? And how did she meet the guys?  Can you share more?  This has not been my daughter's experience at all and she's sort of bummed because she went to a girls' high school and hoped college would be a bit different. [/quote]

She goes to a midsized school of 8k.  The school had 5 days of orientation and she was able to meet numerous people during the various events.  She also lives in a coed dorm and they had various activities.  Being an active participant and engaging people, I think goes a long way. [/quote]

Is this Northwestern?  It sounds like my older child's experience. 
My younger child goes to UVA and all the dorms are single gender by floor, they had 2 days of summer orientation in June etc. It's been really had to meet the opposite sex and no one they know is dating or really interacting with the opposite gender at all outside of parties which aren't great because everyone is drunk.
