[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the current list of fun, social, selective and smart T20s/30s? Greek life good [b]Going out [/b]2-3x/week good At least 20-25% of class is socially oriented, outgoing, friendly And with bars, darties, or sports etc. [/quote] What does 'going out' actually include in your head? With a friend, with few friends, ona date, with a group? [/quote] If one were to include socializing in any way with at least one other person, outside of class, then all schools likely average 2-3xw or more, even the notoriously serious ivies, chicago, hopkins, CMU. If one only includes parties or clubs or bars as “going out “ then NOPE do not put Cornell Duke Northwestern and maybe others on this list. Those schools are basically ivies culturally , with more sports related campus focus for two of them [/quote] I have a kid at Northwestern. A pretty social kid. Do you? Here's generally the last few months: Downtown (or Lincoln Park) 1x/week, club maybe 1/x week (if a frat has rented 1 of 3 spots out). Halloween was at a giant bar/club that has a location in Vegas. In Evanston 1x/week for off-campus parties. They also go out to eat a LOT (it can get pricey). It's definitely much more social than my kid expected. But DC is loving it (sometimes has to take a Sat night off bc did Thurs and Fri out and then basketball or football games, and it's too much given the frequency of mid-terms etc). I think the general problem with this post and people's feedback is that if you don't have a kid there (which is actually social), you don't have a good sense for what an average week looks like. Maybe that's another post.[/quote]
