<p>Caution: May offend some people.</p>
<p>Where do most people party (on campus, in the city, etc. specifics would be great)??</p>
<p>I hear lots of people on campus are into heavy drugs, is this true?</p>
<p>What do most people do for fun on the weekends? Do people do anything for fun?</p>
<p>Are girls at Columbia more like sorority TV girls or like no-fun stereotypical book nerds?</p>
<p>Is the campus cohesive/community feel?</p>
<p>Are people on campus happy and enjoyable to be around or are most people really serious, boring, and not smiling (a.k.a MIT and UChicago)</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Where do they party? In the dorms, in the frats, at the local bars, elsewhere (cubs/bars/etc.) in the city</p>
<p>Drugs? Plenty of people smoke pot. People do more dangerous drugs (X, coke, etc.), but I can't say that "lots of people" do those drugs. And it is unlikely that people will do those sort of drugs on campus rather than at some nightclub.</p>
<p>Fun on the weekends? Explore NYC (sites, museums, walking around, shopping, etc.). At night, the same thing people do at any other college -- drink, party, etc. </p>
<p>Girls? You'll get a good mix. Some nerds, some party girls. It isn't UT Austin if that's what you're asking.</p>
<p>Community feel? Somewhat. The rah-rah spirit is lacking, partially because of the horrible sports program. Also, Columbia draws on all of NYC and isn't isolated from society, so that affects the cohesiveness.</p>
<p>Happy and enjoyable? Definitely. Most people are well rounded and can balance school and having fun.</p>
<p>Flip side of the girls question, what about the guys? lol</p>
