Wait, what?  This thread is about W&M— a small state college in VA. What school are you talking about?[/quote]

You are totally naive if you think small schools dont party[/quote]

Plenty of small schools party. Plenty of kids at WM go to parties on weekends.   But, if you list the top 100 “party schools” on the US, big, small and in between, WM would be nowhere to be found. For some kids that’s a plus. For some, party hard and big sports are the traditional college experience they want. Those kids don’t go to WM. And if they do, they are probably pretty unhappy.

I can't speak to W&M today, but we definitely had parties.  Some on DCUM seem to think that doesn't happen and I'm not sure why.  But we all were aware we were not at a top party school and I was fine with that.  Still, it is quite a social school in its own way.[/quote]

Nobody has said parties don’t happen. They definitely do. But “party school” and a school where there are parties on weekends are different.  Party school implies parties are the primary reason kids are there. And education is secondary. This does not describe WM.

UVA is a party school but that's not the primary reason people go there[/quote]
