While true, the majority are really into the football team, games, marching band, etc.  Campus life really revolves around the football and Greek cultures (which overlap).

It’s all work hard/play hard.[/quote]

I am confused by the comments about UVA as a school with a football culture.  Of the schools playing major college football, UVA has the reputation of lacking a football culture.  I would say Northwestern, Vanderbilt and Duke have more of a football culture than UVA.  They are obviously no VaTech and JMU might have more of a football culture than UVA.

Preppy, Greek, Lax bro - sure.  Football - lol.[/quote]

UVa’s hard core drinking culture revolves around Greek Life in a very exclusionary manner. VT and JMU’s drinking is more friendly and inclusive through football. UVa’s mediocre at best football team is out of sight and out of mind. [/quote]

So UVA is a bad hard drinking school as opposed to VT and JMU, which are good hard drinking schools?[/quote]

You can decide if hard drinking is good or bad. The difference is the social scene that surrounds hard drinking is more exclusive at uva. And yes, it’s still the dominant culture. UVA attracts some very wealthy country club kids that are uninterested in socializing with public school kids. [/quote]

Ignorant comment. [/quote]
