<p>Some people chimmed in about parties. How is the partying scene at Rice since its in a downtown area? Is it mostly clubs downtown? Dorm sponsored parties? Frats/Sororities? House Parties?</p>
<p>Do some searching on this forum midnightsun and you can find more information.</p>
<p>Rice is obviously not really a "party college", but we do party. The party life revolves around the colleges hosting parties. You could always go to a club if desired. Due to the college system there are no frats at Rice, or everybody is automatically in a frat, depending on how you look at it. </p>
<p>There are also random off-campus parties that go on, most of these are relatively private affairs, though some, like "Archi-Arts" are big events.</p>
