[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS attends a top 15 school that is one of the few T15 schools with a bit of party reputation.  (I can think of two such schools, others can chime in)

Here's the deal OP: in 2023-24, the kids who've killed themselves for 6-8 straight years to gain admission to a very top school ... are not partiers.  The student bodies of _today's_ Cornell or Penn or JHU or Vanderbilt are packed to the rafters with striving, achievement-driven 20 years olds.  It's really difficult to maintain the life of organic chem/original research/programming while getting loudly sh!tfaced drunk several nights a week

Do some kids at my kid's top school party, sometime? yes, according to DS, but not in enough numbers to affect the overall [b]somber, serious, driven vibe in the residential halls [/b]and after-hours campus.

Ooof. Sounds a bit depressing. Somber? Not to romanticize the “old days,” but…high achieving kids used to know how to cut loose & have fun. [/quote]

Kids do at most schools including t20 schools.  But premed/engineering/cs majors cannot is that 4 days a week and so we’ll.  They do it one day of weekend and spend the rest getting shit done.  It was that way 30 years ago—you just didn’t know kids with serious majors [/quote]
