[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's traditionally called the Northwestern 400.

400 kids in the freshman class are social (give or take), hang out together (downtown clubs or the Deuce), go on SB together to Mexico or DR, study abroad in the same places in Spain, Copenhagen or Florence (last year it was Spain), host off-campus parties in apts (and darties for football in the fall), etc.

I think this year, students estimated its closer to 500. So not really a huge change....maybe a bit around the edges? But yes, there weren't enough Greek bids, and 2 frats coming back this year and 2 sororities.

Agree there is much less activism on campus.

Pretty small cohort, but very unified when you combine with the other classes and upperclassmen. Maybe it feels more like a SLAC?

Can't imagine the Duke and Vandy #s are all that different? How big are the pledge classes there?[/quote]

This sounds terribly claustrophobic and depressing.  My kid goes to a southern school known to be social and the kids go all over for study abroad, not all to the same city, not even all to the same continent.  Or perhaps you have it wrong.[/quote]

You clearly know nothing about NU, so why post? What southern city does your DC frequent that is as cool as Chicago? NU has it all - academic prestige, Big 10 sports, world class theater/music/journalism, amazing campus, quick access to a major city and phenomenal job placement (if you can withstand the winter). Go visit before passing judgement. [/quote]
