<p>I keep on hearing how lame Northwestern's social life is. It leaves me to wonder does anyone ever party?</p>
<p>trust me...there are people who party almost everyday....there are people who never party....and there are people who party every now and then. it just depends on who you are friends with and what kind of parties you want. if you live on north campus, parties are going to be more convenient and closer to you for the most part, so you can pop in and out and back to your dorm.</p>
<p>I think you'd be hard pressed to find ANY college where no one partied. Seriously, it's COLLEGE, Northwestern or not... and Northwestern's no MIT. The social life is fine- 40% of the campus goes greek, what does that tell you about the party scene? Haha, I do wonder who you "keep on hearing" this from.</p>
<p>I have a suggestion to you: go to LSU board instead of any of those under "CC Top Universities". ;)</p>
<p>Yeah I hear that a lot too, but mostly from people who don't go to NU. So, yeah. I'm in Bobb next year, and I figure it's always easier to leave the party than find the party, you know?</p>
<p>Living in Bobb will be nice cuz you'll be close to a lot of parties, being on North campus, so you won't have to look as far as south campus-ers.</p>
<p>haha kmac, i doubt juliusmonky's going to need to find a party if s/he's in bobb. its the "athletic" dorm since its near the athletic complex. hence, finding party should be even easier than you make it out to be =D</p>
<p>it's true....i lived in bobb last year...and it basically is a party....but, parties in rooms are little and get busted easily...and then you have to sit at the fire door for community service on dillo day....not that any of my friends did that. haha.</p>
<p>In general kids here dont party much. 40% of the kids are greek, maybe half would be considered partiers. That said, the keg and deuce are good bars to go to on monday and thursday. generally on friday or saterday there is a decent party somwhere, on or off campus and there are also the random floor parties at the frats that pop up. If you want to party, there is more than enough...i go to chicago every week. Its like any school, parties and drinking exist, but you may have to look a little bit harder than say madison...</p>
<p>I completely agree...the only I'd say is that....somewhat often....thursdays have better/more parties than fridays...crazy I know..but so true</p>
<p>I completely agree with both Al and kmac.</p>
