<ol>
<li>No. But friendships take time, you won’t have a great group of friends right away.</li>
<li> Alcohol is, but it’s no big deal if you don’t drink.</li>
<li> Time management.</li>
<li>I’ve actually been pretty good.</li>
<li> Rush is in the winter and I haven’t decided yet.</li>
<li> Sketchy.</li>
<li>Augustana, IL</li>

<p>Let’s work on the grammar first, okay?</p>

None.
Somewhere over there.</p>

<p>Fool? mmmm, i thinks one should look in the mirror first before trampsing around and calling others fools.</p>

<li><p>It’s not hard to make random friends. Finding real friends you really connect with however takes time.</p></li>
<li><p>It is in my circle. And at my school in general. If you don’t use that stuff though I’m sure you’ll find others who don’t.</p></li>
<li><p>I don’t know, you just kind of learn how. Sometimes it’s just having the discipline to do work when you know your friends are doing something more fun.</p></li>
<li><p>I haven’t had any really bad experiences.</p></li>
<li><p>I’m pledging Sigma Delta Tau.</p></li>
<li><p>Their parties are pretty great. More people go to frats than sororities though around here for parties. And it’s better to just go to an apartment party or something rather than a random frat party.</p></li>
<li><p>Madison, WI.</p></li>

<p>No, but it takes time to make good friends.
Very. But I’ve met plenty of people who don’t do either.
It’s hard. You really just have to say “no” to hanging out with people sometimes.
Getting played by a guy within the first 2 weeks.
We don’t have those.
Crazy.

<ol>
<li>Nope. Just approach people and say hi.</li>
<li>I know alcohol is but I just turn a blind eye.</li>
<li>Work during the day, party at night.</li>
<li>Getting a boatload of stuff to read by [due date too soon]</li>
<li>None. Too early/don’t care.</li>
<li>Wouldn’t know.</li>
<li>Philadelphia</li>
</ol>

<ol>
<li>I didn’t have a hard time making friends, but everyone here is extraordinarily friendly to being with.</li>
<li>Yes, there is a lot of alcohol and pot to a much lesser extent.</li>
<li>On weekdays, I go to class, go to soccer practice, and hit the library to do work. On Friday and Saturday nights, I go out, and on other nights my whole floor hangs out when we’re procrastinating/done with homework.</li>
<li>Accidentally falling down a flight of stairs while carrying a glass of soda. I slipped, shattered the glass, and had soda everywhere, but fortunately was fine. I wasn’t drunk - I just fell, so I guess it’s a little funny.</li>
<li>My school doesn’t have a greek system.</li>
<li>Most parties are in the dorms here. Townhouse parties are also popular and can be a little sketchy but are mostly fun.</li>
<li>Carleton College</li>
</ol>

<p>is it hard to make friends?
Not really, just be outgoing, meet people on your floor, join clubs… I have a pretty solid group of friends</p>

<p>is the use of marijuana and alcohol popular?
Definitely…</p>

<p>how do you balance the socializing and working part?
Time management… Work hard all week so you can go out thursday-saturday or when you choose </p>

<p>what is the worst experience you’ve had so far?
Getting punched in the face by a guy at a party</p>

<p>what are some of the frats or sororities you’ve pledged or rushed?
I’m still rushing but I’m down to top 8, including KD, Theta, APhi, Pi Phi etc…</p>

<p>what are their house parties like?
legit usually, apartment parties here can be crazy</p>

<p>lastly, what college do you attend?
State!</p>
