<p>I just completed my overnight visit to Macalester and I was a bit disappointed. I stayed with a first year who got drunk on a Wednesday night-apparently her group of friends do this about every week. I was wondering if anyone has some insight on the student life at Mac. I'm not a drinker, but I don't mind if people drink. I just don't want it to dominate the social scene or for there to be a lot of pressure to participate. Also, does anyone know what the typical weekend is like? My host wasn't very informative... Do people usually stay on campus, or do students feel that to be entertained they need to go into the cities? </p>
