social life at Georgetown//

<p>i heard George town allows no alchohol within the campus,</p>

<p>and you have to get permission for a party. are they true??
oh, and one more rumour i heard was that Georgetown was full of 'rich' kids.
is that true as well??</p>

<p>None of those are true. The freshman dorms are "dry", but it's not really enforced, and even if you get written up, nothing really happens. The upperclassmen dorms and apartments are all "wet". I think upperclassmen
that want to have parties with alcohol can register their party, which I think just means there is less of a chance that campus police is going to break it up, and those parties will have signs saying "18 to party, 21 to drink", but they don't card or anything. </p>

<p>That being said, there is no lack of parties at Georgetown. From Thursday to Satuday night, you can find tons of parties to go to. We have the best parties in DC, kids from American and GW come to Georgetown to party. </p>

<p>As for rich kids, there are a lot of rich kids, but they are not the majority at all. I'd say less than half of the students actually wear all of the expensive brand-name clothes and accessories. Don't worry about fitting in.</p>

<p>Definitely no problem finding a party/getting alcohol (at least if you're a girl) at Georgetown.</p>

<p>In fact, the first week I was petrified that there was ALL that there was..but it is my understanding that the parties come in waves.</p>

<p>Almost everyone on my floor has been drunk ever thursday, friday and saturday since we got here. So much for being a dry dorm. We pregame like crazy. Honestly if you're worried about not having enough parties around just got visit for a weekend and see how easy it is to hit 5 parties in a night. Parties don't have to be registered and it really isn't a big deal anyway. Sure lots of the kids are well off here, but we're still college kids and want to save money. Yes I bought something from Lacoste last week but I also am too cheap to go out to eat more than once a week.</p>

<p>Some upperclassmen get creative, with the:</p>

<p>18 to grind with ____<strong><em>,
21 to "you know" with _</em></strong>
_____.</p>

<p>(I blanked out the names, of course).</p>

<p>The one thing, though, is that open alcoholic beverage containers at Georgetown is a severe no-no. It's the thing that they catch you on, really.</p>
