<p>Will it be difficult to be accepted, make friends and find something to do if you are more on the left side of the spectrum and are not into getting drunk and going to the frats.</p>

<h1>4 Alternative Lifestyles Not an Alternative</h1>
<h1>1 Little Race/Class Interaction</h1>
<h1>16 Lots of Beer</h1>
<h1>10 Lots of Hard Liquor</h1>
<h1>19 More to Do on Campus (Party-wise as this is a social category)</h1>
<p>The above are probably the more revealing about the students at Trinity. Now, I’m not saying that it is totally representative of the population of students at Trinity. A lot of liquor and beer though, would seem that there is little room for those who are not into getting drunk and parties. I know someone who attends Trinity from my school, and all she talks about is her parties. You should check out theprincetonreview.com for more info.</p>
<p>Take that all with a grain of salt. IMO, the Princeton Review tries to simplify schools too much with their “rankings.” As a student at Trinity, I can promise you that the first two categories on that list are bogus. Sure, Trinity faces an occasional prejudicial issue, but no more than any other school. A couple of issues in the past were blown way out of proportion. Ironically, the issues were exacerbated and publicized not by an apathetic, prejudiced campus, but by the overwhelming amount of opposition and publicity stimulated as a result of the hurtful comments.<br>
As far as parties go, yes, Trinity students drink a lot. But frats are not the only social scene. Visit Trinity and check out “The Fred.”<br>
Lastly, it’s ridiculous to turn “More to Do on Campus” into a negative. While, like I’ve said, this rankings are arbitrary at best, I do think that Trinity’s campus is very energetic. I honestly don’t know if any schools fits the “work hard, play hard” mantra better than Trinity does.<br>
The bottom line: check the school out; don’t be dissuaded by these baseless, oversimplified stereotypes that the Princeton Review promotes.</p>
<p>Thanks sh71988, I appreciate the first hand perceptive from an actual student.</p>
