[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband went to W&M decades ago but they definitely partied. Recently, we took our child there for a tour with a friend. The dorms she lived in used to be a fraternity house. They weren’t great but someone told me they are tearing them down this year and rebuilding. I asked her about the academics and students. She found her classes to be very rigorous and the students very studious but not in a cutthroat type of way. She was having some problems adjusting at first but likes it now. Her only regret was not joining a sorority. She said she was anti-sorority when she started at W&M but she thinks a lot of the social scene revolves the Greek life and will rush next year. (I was never in a sorority so I’m not pushing for it either way. Just sharing info.) It seems like a great school and the campus is so beautiful. [/quote] Ha! I also went to W&M in the late 90's/early 00's and probably would have said the same as your husband and your child's friend, re the scene and academics. and people said the same stuff about W&M not being a party school when I went there. My experience was that there was definitely a significant proportion of the student body that didn't socialize as much (at least not at bars, frat parties, etc). But a larger proportion who did. I also never would have thought of myself as a sorority person before going, but rushed my sophomore year. And I remember those dorms when they were fraternity houses![/quote]
