<p>Is it social suicide if you don't join one of these at Dartmouth? Can you still have fun without drinking?</p>
<p>Yes, you can still have fun without drinking because there are so many things to do on campus that don't involve drinking. Daughter does not drink, although she has friends that do drink, she says she does not feel pressured to drink, goes to parties and still has a good time. You will find a way to adjust because freshmen are not allowed to pledge, so take it one step at a time.</p>
<p>Sybbie, wouldn't non-drinkers be segregated from activities involving drinking though?</p>
<p>Not really, I know people who didnt drink and they hung out with people and had an awesome time. There are lots of outdoor events, productions, etc going on all the time as well. In the party scene people do drink, but people drink at bars too. Its pretty much like anywhere else in that regard.</p>
