Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There is a high female-to-male ratio at Goucher. Often, this means straight women are forced to look off campus for hookups and relationships because any word of romance on campus gets around quickly.

On that note, Goucher is also a safe, accepting place for people of all sexual identities and preferences. A range of contraceptives, as well as free STD testing, is available at Health Services, and there are no restrictions about having members of the opposite sex stay the night in your dorm room.

70 / 30 Girls to Guys Ratio

There is a 70 / 30 ratio of girls to guys on campus. A lot of guys take advantage of this, which is really not cool. Especially on such a small campus. Most Goucher students are quirky and eccentric. Don't expect to find frat bros or sorority girls !

Facts

Social Scene

Goucher College is not a big state school. If you want to be involved in the social scene, you have to leave your room and search for it. Otherwise, student interaction outside of one’s social circle is usually limited to class and extracurricular activities. On weekends, students like to go to the bars in Towson, clubs in Baltimore, or just to a movie down the street or dinner with friends. There are also the options of checking out on-campus and off-campus parties; however, on-campus parties are often limited to a small group of students hanging out and drinking in a dorm room. Occasionally, parties will spread into the hall and neighboring rooms, but that just increases the likelihood of Public Safety busting them.

Hookups or Relationships?

Goucher is a small school, so any hookups or relationships typically become public knowledge rather quickly. By the end of four years, it becomes nearly impossible to find someone who hasn’t been involved with someone you will know, inspiring many upperclassmen to find and meet partners off campus and at nearby schools.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

A great way to meet people outside of your classes and social circle is to wander through the dorms on a Friday or Saturday night. Most students have their doors propped open to chat with people that walk by and to keep an ear out for nearby parties. When the weather is warm, the best place to meet people is on the residential quad. With girls in bikinis and guys with their shirts off, it’s obvious what many people are really there for (because it’s not like there’s a pool on the quad). The dining halls are also a great way to scope out hotties—everyone has to eat, so this is the best way to find the reclusive ones. On-campus events are not always well attended, so attending them is not necessarily the best way to meet people. However, if you find on-campus activities and clubs a blast, you will meet other students who feel the same way at these events.

Dress Code

During the day, most students dress casually with jeans and T-shirts. While plenty of students look like they just stepped out of a fashion magazine, others tend to look like they just rolled out of bed.
