<p>Is there much to do on the weekends? Are there any parties? Lectures? What do the students do for fun?</p>
<p>Plenty of parties on the weekends. Let me put it this way: If you drink you can easily entertain yourself at the frat houses Thu-Sat night. So that's three days of the week taken care of... And if you don't drink, you'll still have plenty of fun Thu-Sat night just watching and making fun of the drunk people.</p>
<p>In addition there's always sports games, a movie theater nearby, video games, and mostly just hanging with your friends...</p>
<p>there are lots of visiting lecturers... usually those are during the week though.</p>
<p>as Datkid said... there is stuff to do. If you want to drink, there are places to drink. If you don't want to drink, there are many people to hang out with and do that also.</p>
