<p>Thursday is the biggest party night. Plus Halloween and St. Patty's day.</p>

<p>3-5 nights a week I drink.</p>

<p>Bud, bud light, coors light, busch, busch light (basically anything but malt liquor and miller lite)</p>

<p>Drink to get drunk.</p>

<p>Willing to spend whatever it takes.(If at home usually 10-15 bucks, if I go to bar probably between 20-30 bucks)</p>

<p>Celebrity influence would be Drew Carey or Adam Sandler.</p>

<p>Male, 21</p>

<p>Cornell University</p>

<p>Party on Friday and Saturday</p>

<p>Twice a week (Friday and Saturday), there is no time for more drinking with all the work I have</p>

<p>I usually drink beer, wine, gin martini's, or Patron tequila</p>

<p>I drink socially, but I usual drink to get drunk</p>

<p>$300/ semester in fraternity social dues, plus 20-30 per weekend night</p>

<p>No celebrity influence.</p>

<p>Female</p>

<p>18</p>

<p>Stanford</p>

<p>Thursday, Friday, Saturday are party nights</p>

<p>Usually Friday or Saturday- once every two weeks</p>

<p>I like "girly" drinks- Wyder's, etc, but i will drink an occasional beer (the cheapest kinds)</p>

<p>I drink socially</p>

<p>I think this entire year the only time I spent on alcohol was $8 to reimburse a friend who bought it</p>

<p>No celebrity influence</p>

<p>Male, 19</p>

<p>Depends on major but there is basically a party or something somewhere everyday but the biggest days are on the weekends TR-Sat. There Boozeday/Trashed Tuesdays (Wine Night at a local bar helps), Wasted Wednesdays, Thursday Thursdays, and then the weekend.</p>

<p>I drink 1-2 nights a week, 3 at most, 0 at least (lab reports have kept me in 3 weeks in a row). Fri, sometimes Sat, and then if I have an exam during the week with nothing the next day.</p>

<p>Anything as long as it gets me drunk. I'm a big fan of shots of any sort. For beers (haven't tried em all), I like Miller and my friends make fun of me. Mixed drinks with pop are awful tho (coke and rum/Jack for instance)</p>

<p>I don't do anything to be social. I just do it b/c I feel like it. I never do anything against my morals or to fit in.</p>

<p>Depends on the event. Usually nothing (85-90%) b/c I hate spending money. That's just for Fri and Sat it is less than 10 def (I've been trying to avoid bars b/c you spend more there). But if I go out on a weekday, hardly ever, like a barcrawl or something, then it can go pretty high.</p>

<p>I don't let celebrities influence me but I admire good actors who can manage to stay grounded, not get caught up in the fame or drugs and stuff, like Naomi Watts. (I know she's a girl but it's just an example b/c I can't think of any guys off-hand right now.)</p>

<p>Female, 18</p>

<p>University of Southern California</p>

<p>Thursday is the party night</p>

<p>I seldom drink (like once a semester)</p>

<p>I can't say that I really like the taste of alcoholic drinks. But I will pretty much drink anything that isn't "harsh" (e.g. no whiskey)</p>

<p>Usually I drink socially. There are times when I would like to drink to get drunk, but I usually don't.</p>

<p>How much I spend depends on the enivronment. If I am just looking to drink, I won't go to a bar when I know I can drink at a frat for free. If I did go to a bar, I would prob spend about $20.</p>

<p>Celebrity Influence: Allison Janney</p>

<p>I don't drink too often...Last semester it was only like 4 times. This semester, twice.</p>

<p>I'm a social drinker, but I do get carried away once in a while.</p>

<p>Female, 19</p>

<p>University of Southern California</p>

<p>Thurs- Sat, but Thursday is the main night.</p>

<p>I don't have a set amount a week I drink. I'll go in spurts, like three nights in a row, and then not again for a few weeks.</p>

<p>I'll drink anything (but that doesn't mean I like it). Usually just mixed drinks, i.e. screwdriver, vodka and cranberry, etc.</p>

<p>I like to get tipsy. </p>

<p>I like to spend nothing, aka go to frat parties or places where the drinks are free. I rarely find myself paying for drinks, but if so, I would probably spend $20 or so.</p>
