<p>Now that I'm in and seriously considering the school, I realized that I know very little about the student body/social life at Richmond. If anybody has any insight on the typical Richmond student or what the social scene is like at the school, that would be great.</p>
<p>The social life is heavily centered around the frats. You need a car to get into the city (there might be school transportation too, I'm not sure). But from what I hear, there isn't much going on in the city. The students tend to be preppy, many from the northeast, and I'm sure most are quite wealthy as well. I have heard from many people that the student body is overwhelmingly conservative. Did you get the email about the online chat that's happening thursday night? That would probably be a good place to get your questions answered (even though they're going to probably sugarcoat their responses haha).</p>
