What is the best way to go about meeting people from other colleges?

<p>I go to school in Boston where as you may know has a lot of college students and colleges. My school has a very low percentage of girls and I am looking to meet people from other schools. How do I go about this? Is it acceptable for my friends and I to just show up at college parties unannounced? Go to other schools cafeterias? I just have no idea how to meet people from other colleges unless it is thru friends. My school doesn't have good club programs that would allow me to meet more people.</p>

<p>Hang out at places in the town of another college, don’t necessarily need to go on campus to meet people.</p>
