<p>I was accepted to BC, and was wondering what the social scene is like. Obviously I want to do some hard work in college, but there are always the weekends where I’d rather kick back and have fun. After reading this thread, <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1116449-dorm-room-searched-campus-police-just-now.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1116449-dorm-room-searched-campus-police-just-now.html</a>, and seeing how it was mentioned the students in discussion attend a Jesuit university, how is the party/social scene at BC? Is it extremely strict, etc?</p>
<p>So is there no social life at BC? I’m just wondering because with the lack of Greek I’m guessing there are less parties. Does one need to travel into Boston with a fake ID to have any fun?</p>
<p>Wow. No. Where do people get this idea? It’s pretty much the exact opposite. As someone who has lived right next to BC for 17 years, I almost wish there wasn’t so much partying (not that it’s as intense as a huge state school or anything; just that clearly I’m not exactly a huge party person); that’s actually kind of a drawback for me as far as whether or not to enroll. But it is, of course, also easily avoidable judging from everything I have gathered. Trust me, you will not be missing out on any social opportunities if you come to BC.</p>
