Not Much to Do Outside of Campus

Although there is not much to do off campus, the programs and activities that are available are fun and interesting. If you ever get so bored on campus, it is very easy to get to Boston or another bigger city, but it is expensive.

We Drink...A Lot

Drinking is everywhere, all the time. If you are very against drinking, I would suggest trying a different school. It dominates the social scene. It's not just a part of the social scene it IS the social scene. For many students and good night means getting very drunk, and that's all. There's no peer pressure but if you don't drink you might not have very much fun being surrounded by a bunch of drunk people. Drugs are here too, but pretty hidden, but definitely there if you want them. Alcohol, however, is unavoidable.
