<p>So I was on Facebook, searching "XXX university/college class of 2013",
all of the schools I could think of (that have EA/ED), have a Facebook group...</p>
<p>Except Dartmouth, which makes me a little worried... Is social life really bad in Dartmouth?
Are people friendly in Dartmouth....?</p>
<p>Hm. No idea why that's the case. There are numerous threads on the social life here, so I'm not going to write up a bunch of reasons, but you should come visit. I think that would be your best bet of gauging the social scene at Dartmouth.</p>
<p>The ************** one got deleted, but there's a new one up.. it's under "Dartmouth Class of 2013" and there's like.. 90 people in it or something? I don't remember, but it's up there. </p>
<p>I think that we're using facebook for right now to get to know each other.. we can't blitz yet, lol. I noticed that when I got on campus though -- NO ONE uses their cell phones or signs onto facebook much.. but everyone checks blitzmail like, 20 times a day... lol</p>
<p>the stars are supposed to be c<em>o</em>l<em>l</em>e<em>g</em>e_<em>p</em>r<em>o</em>w<em>l</em>e_r; the company made a lot of 2013 facebook groups, probably as a marketing scheme. there's a blog about it floating around on the internet</p>
<p>Actually blitz used to be even more dominant. When I arrived as a freshman there were often long lines for blitz terminals, and many upperclassmen were complaining about the sudden rise of cellphones. Nowadays almost everyone I know has a cellphone (even if they don't use it much). Also, one thing about newer cellphones is that you can check blitz on them...</p>
<p>I think the other group got deleted because it was started by people who weren't Dartmouth '13s! One of the admins was in the UMiami class of 2008. I checked out a few other college groups and they were all started by the same group of people. Maybe that's why it got deleted.</p>
<p>johnleemk: i visited campus on the fly-in program and we did this scavenger hunt thing.. one of the tasks was to make a really long line behind a blitz terminal. i thought it was funny that you mentioned that XD</p>
<p>Dartmoose: yeah, there were like ten people that created 1000+ class of 2013 groups, but after people found out that they all work for a company and that it might be a marketing scheme, the admins began to leave the group. for dartmouth's group, the admin left the facebook page, but i think it was ultimately deleted because it used a dartmouth logo, but i'm not sure. anyway, the new one is 10x cooler :)</p>
