Social Life at Conn

What’s it like? Is there a lot to do? Are the parties good? I’m not artistic, and I play sports but I’m not a varsity athlete. I like the idea of partying in college, but not like crazy.

As a student at Conn, I can say there will be parties you can go to if you want. Most of the parties are at junior or senior apartments. These apartments are usually owned by different sports teams, a capella groups, theater groups, and just groups of friends. They’re all pretty open to other people if they’re throwing a party. If you play sports, many of the club teams have apartments so that could be a good option. Groups of friends also gather in individual rooms, so there’s definitely lots of options depending on what you want to do. People are very friendly!

Also, there’s lots of school-sponsored events which can actually be pretty fun. “Cro dances” are pretty popular depending on whether there’s a dj or band coming in for them (those are in the student center). There’s also student band shows, things in Unity House, and lots of different options!
