Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

At Barry University, there is someone for everyone, if you look for it. There are definitely more girls than guys, and most of the girls here are quite classy. It is rare to find someone who is just into one-night stands, probably because this is a small campus and rumors and gossip fly quickly. It seems like the girls here either want a serious relationship, or they just want to party and be single. In general, the girls here are very smart, and guys have to work hard to impress them, but all around campus you will find couples holding hands, eating together, and just being themselves. Because the school is very diverse, you will find a lot of biracial relationships—Miami is known as a melting pot, and the Barry guys and girls truly encompass this.

If you’re looking to meet someone, Barry’s Campus Activities Board offers several activities throughout the year for people and couple to hang out, socialize, mingle, and make friends. Although getting an education should be your top priority, if you want a relationship, it won’t be hard to accomplish, with the right attitude and personality. If you are looking for a "quick-action" situation, you probably will not be so lucky, but good luck.

Varied

Barry is very diverse. There are people from all over the world. The most common dress would be short and tank tops for girls, and jeans or basketball shorts and t-shirts for guys.There are no nearby clubs, but there are always people going out downtown to go.

Facts

Social Scene

The Campus Activities Board offers a full list of activities, including comedy nights, Monday Night Football extravaganzas, festivals, and even seasonal dances. And, if you want to do something off campus, Barry is only about 10 to 15 minutes from downtown Miami, South Beach, and more. If you cannot find anything to do here, then this may not be the city for you.

Hookups or Relationships?

The dating scene at Barry University is quite secretive and behind the scenes. Unless a couple is holding hands in public, you will not really know who's dating who. You will see a few couples walking together on a daily basis, but it is never a "boastful" situation. The girls here are pretty classy, so random hookups are not the norm. Everyone respects one another, and guys with no class will not have much luck here—just a reputation for being a jerk.

Dress Code

The University suggests that students "exercise mature judgment and personal responsibility in dress," but there is no strictly enforced dress code. However, at the same time, Barry is a Catholic institution, so it is wise to dress like you have respect for yourselves and others. If you dress inappropriately, you will create a really bad reputation for yourself.
