<p>Not sure if this is already a thread, or a stupid one...but I'm gonna give it a shot.</p>

<p>I just want to know how everyone here finds out about parties (if you do choose to attend them.) I guess the parties I'm talking can be either frat parties, house parties, whatever-celebrate-the-occasion-crack-open-a-beer parties, or just small get togethers and so on. Last year as a freshman living in the dorms, there wasn't hearing about much parties since we didn't know any older people, unless you were in a sorority or fraternity and going to socials. Other kids heard occasionally via word of mouth and some from facebook invites. </p>

<p>Having an older bf last year helped me find out about a lot of parties, but now that he's outta the picture, I'm quite clueless on where to start, especially since I don't have friends who drink. </p>

<p>So yes, how do you find out about parties and such?</p>

<p>through friends. especially girls, sorority girls. if you know them, they’re told about all the frat parties that go on and will know.</p>

3

<p>Pretty much all just word of mouth. Ask anyone you know who parties and anyone who lives off-campus.</p>

4

<p>As others have said, just try to have at least a couple friends who go to parties regularly. At my college people also make Facebook events for open parties and invite their friends, then from there it spreads like wildfire.</p>

<p>word of mouth, ill see friends in the hallway and get the talking they’ll say so and so is having a party you trying to go.</p>

6

<p>But don’t always be the person asking where the parties are. You have to let people know stuff too, otherwise you’re mooching.</p>

<p>Find out who the social chair is for your favorite fraternities, he will know of all of the non date parties and will often have the dates printed on a flyer for you.</p>

<p>I just get invited…</p>
