[quote=Anonymous]I attended W&M and was an athlete. That experience largely colored my feelings about it. As an athlete, our schedule is so demanding that it makes it hard to relate to "regular" students. The academics are rigorous (assuming you don't take kinesiology), students are held to a high standard, and there's a strong alumni network. Students had a sense of pride attending the school. As for the vibe on campus, each student has to find their group like anywhere. I found the student body to be overwhelmingly "nerdy." Kids rocking mickey mouse t-shirts, more interested in studying than anything, etc. There were plenty of frats/sororities, however, for more of a social scene. I lived off-campus after my freshman year to get some space with other roommates, and socialization/big parties always occurred off-campus. There are no bars, per say, so house parties are more common It is Williamsburg, however, so that has an impact. There are more restaurant options now.[/quote]
