[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My freshman daughter is at a large state school and there is no dating or even hooking up going on that she knows of.  She has a wonderful group of friends who are all pretty, social, etc and they go to darties, etc but no boys ever ask them out and they don't get drunk enough to hookup. There are more girls at these things so it's really hard to get the attention of any guys. You can't stand out.  Then no one really talks before or after classes. Kids go in and then leave.

Some of her friends at LACs have had an easy time meeting guys and some have even been asked out. I would say it's much easier in that setting.

I think my daughter is ok with this now because she's investing in female friendship (which is going really well) but I can imagine it will get old with time. I know she would like to date at some point in college.  I think she would be receptive to almost any invitation from a guy.  She and friends are not holding out for the top 5% or anything like that.

This sounds like what my daughter has described. The frats let in girls, but not many boys so the ratio in the parties is off.  She's not sure where to meet non-frat guys.  It's bugging her.[/quote]

Is she considering transferring? And if so, where? Is she in a sorority?[/quote]

Gosh, no.  It's not bad enough to transfer, but it will take different effort than it did when we were younger.  Rush is 2nd semester.[/quote]
