Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Nightlife at Beloit College generally stays on campus. Occasionally, you’ll come across an off-campus party, but the charm of winter keeps students inside, huddling together in the lounges or the C-Haus or whatever on-campus party happens to be going on. Nightlife, in the traditional sense of the word, is rather low-key in Beloit. There is no exciting bar strip nor any dance clubs worth mentioning. This means that students have to use their imaginations to keep things fresh and exciting, and that usually ends with fame and celebrity in the Round Table security reports.

A typical night in Beloit includes meeting up with your friends, drinking with those friends, venturing out to check what’s happening on campus, perhaps having a few drunk conversations with a few drunk student philosophers, then going home with or without the aforementioned friends. Sometimes you’ll make ramen, sometimes you’ll order Papa John’s, and sometimes you’ll throw up and fall asleep in your clothes. A fun night at Beloit is hit or miss, but that’s not to say Beloit doesn’t have a nightlife. Though, sometimes it seems more like a night-death.

Not Impressive

Nightlife at Beloit is all well and around contained on campus, meaning there are no bars or clubs of any kind in the town of Beloit, or at least that would be serving the undergrads. With that said, there are things to do if you look- C-haus makes a good effort to pull in bands and activities, and they will sell beer to undergrads. The frats throw a good party occasionally (the funnily enough, getting into the Science Fiction Club is more selective than getting into any Frat). There are three frats: Nerds, Bros, and TKE, which throws the best parties. Nightlife depends on what your into, and if you look, you will find something for you.

A Lot of Drinking on Campus, Not Much Else Off Campus

People here looove to party...a little bit too much. But there's very little to do outside of campus after dark- most places in town close by 8pm, and a lot of places are closed on weekends

Facts

Club Crawler

Rumor has it that there is a club in Beloit, but the rumor places it across the river and few venture that way. Rumor also says it’s not that fun.

Bar Prowler

Stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to. Suds O’Hanahan’s, an Irish pub within walking distance from the campus, is popular among the collegiates, as is the BOP.

Closing Time

2 a.m. on weeknights

2:30 a.m. on weekends

Cheapest Place to Get a Drink

The Coughy Haus (on campus)

Organization Parties

Special-interest houses like to throw a party every now and then. Various clubs will throw parties using the special-interest houses as a venue. BSFFA threw a party once. It was amazing. Maybe they'll do it again.

What to Do if You're Not 21What's This?

Stay on campus. There are a lot of substance-free parties and events for people who cannot or choose not to partake. People will actually go to them too, believe it or not. And you can always go to the C-Haus, play some pool, see a band, and not drink.
