college search struggles

<p>Less alcohol consumption is typically associated with:</p>

<ul>
<li>Black students and historically black schools (white students at historically black schools tend to drink less than white students at other schools)</li>
<li>Women and women’s schools</li>
<li>Not being in a fraternity or sorority</li>
<li>Two year schools (community colleges)</li>
<li>Commuting from home</li>
<li>Non-rural schools</li>
</ul>

<p>Of course, these are general trends, but you still need to evaluate whether an individual school has a heavy drinking culture or not. Then you have to filter the list of schools by your elitist preferences (apparently, only academic reach schools seem to be acceptable to you, leaving you with no safeties that you could possibly like).</p>
