<p>What Ivy League has the least amount of drinking/partying?</p>
<p>I would imagine they're all tied for that spot. LOL!</p>
<p>Yea, I haven't met a single ivy leaguer that said college was "fun" and a "life changing experience". I mean, you only get to live once, and intelligence is something that never goes away since birth. </p>
<p><em>shrugs</em></p>
<p>1600-</p>
<p>Dartmouth was the most fun life changing experience you could ever imagine. I met most of my class, the class under me, and the class under that. I am getting together with a bunch of alums tonight in the city, then on Sunday to play football in central park. Imagine going out on the weekends where you know a ton of people who are mostly amazing in their own right, on the weekdays hanging out in sipping tea and listening to music in the coffeeshop. There are parties, non-drinking things like building snow sculptures, big weekends, etc. An overall blast.</p>
<p>I have had an amazing time everytime I have visited Brown and Penn. 1600 you have no idea what you are talking about. Go to one first then talk.</p>
<p>OK, I did not mean to offend. But I am just beaning your players in order to protect my pitcher.</p>
<p>What are you talking about. You say so many ridiculous things I am thinking your responses are not worth respondind to. Your biggest misconception is thinking students at the Ivies outside of HYP are just in it for the Ivy title. You miss the point that Columbia is by far the best school in a major city, Dartmouth the best LACsy school undergrad environment, Cornell a top science school, etc.</p>
<p>Penn is a huge party school. No other Ivy can compare party-wise. There are parties wednesday through sunday; something unheard of at other Ivies. The social scene consists not only of beer drinking (which is primary at Dartmouth) it consists of frat parties, apartment parties, underground frat parties (aka the secret societies that throw parties with cristal, courvoisier, etc spending over 10000 on alcohol per night), then you have the clubbing scene, the latin party scene, and finally we cant forget the pre-gaming that everyone does in their dorms. </p>
<p>The next biggest party ivies would be Dartmouth, Yale, Brown (there are always parties thrs-sat). Then you have Cornell, Harvard, Princeton and Columbia all with similar sub-par social life.</p>
<p>ive always heard that penn is the drinking ivy. and i know that yale has awesome parties too.</p>
<p>i bet columbia probably has the worst party life</p>
<p>Dartmouth, Cornell, Penn, and Yale probably have the best. The problem with Harvard is that so many of the people have the ****tiest social skills ever, but if you want to find a party im sure its not hard.</p>
<p>Bern, Dartmouth is pretty similar to Penn. Every weekend night there are two to three big parties where most people congregate, plus lots of little ones at frats, plus house parties, plus the secret societies, plus the outdoorsy people who have fun parties, plus the 'cultural; houses like the la casa, etc.</p>
<p>i haerd good stuff about cornells drinking scene haha</p>
<p>What's the best school for those who prefer good conversation to projectile vomiting.</p>
<p>Cornell is in some pretty well-known wine country,the Finger Lakes region, and a friend's D actually took for-credit classes in wine appreciation. Was the mom ever mad about it. (Not that most of you consider wine part of the drinking scene)</p>
<p>Wine appreciation I have no problem with. In fact, I'd like to learn about it somewhat.</p>
<p>So wait, mensa, you don't object to wine, and yet you object to drinking? How does this work? And before you say that wine appreciation doesn't necessarily involve getting so drunk that you throw up, well, neither does any sort of drinking. There are some people dumb enough not to have figured out after the first few times that vomiting or passing out isn't actually fun, but for the rest of us, drinking occasionally at a party is just a fun thing that we do every once in a while and does little harm. What do you have against it?</p>
<p>Why are you antogonizing just for the sake of antagonizing?</p>
<p>kitkattail, next time you see a story about a wine tasting leading to kids passing out and going to the ER, pls post it.</p>

<p>Can't you read? mensa said that projectile vomiting is not desirable, not that drinking is bad.</p>
<p>Obviously, there is a huge difference between drinking beer to get drunk and drinking wine to appreciate its flavors.</p>
<p>Hey, don't insult beer in favor of wine.</p>
<p>You can drink beer just to experience the vast difference in beer due to brewing methods and ingredients, and you can drink wine for the sole purpose of getting drunk. I've drank beer just for tasting purposes and to get wasted, and I've drank wine just for tasting purposes and to get wasted.</p>
<p>Its about how much of alcohol you drink, not what type.</p>

<p>No one said otherwise, YaleSociety lol</p>
<p>wow, sometimes it seems like collegeconfidential people go from thread to thread looking for something to argue about... but at least from what I've noticed, every college except for the notable few have a social scene for everyone and wherever you go there wil be drinkers and non-drinkers. Most people who aspire to attand ivy league instituions don't go into college wanting to get completely trashed every weekend, so wherever you go you'll fit in and have people with which you can relate, but Penn and Dartmouth are probably the two ivies with the biggest prevalence of alcohol. Good luck</p>
