Social Scene
Juniata students are known for being exceptionally friendly and outgoing. It's a small campus in a small town, so between classes, dorms, activities, and the dining hall, you'll learn names, faces, or both, pretty quickly. Student organizations are very active, and the individualized majors cause academic as well as social mixing. At the same time, cliques do develop, they just tend not to be as noticeable. After the typical time to get adjusted, students usually find their niche pretty quickly.
Hookups or Relationships?
The dating scene varies as much as the students do, but is nothing out of the ordinary. Students hook up, get serious, break up, and then life goes on. There are also plenty of people who are serious with students from other colleges, and there is a nice number of happily independent singletons, too.
Dress Code
Juniata students are pretty relaxed when it comes to what they wear. You'll find as many who dress up as dress down, and you'll find plenty of people with their own sense of style, meaning you can pretty much wear whatever you want without raising much of an eyebrow—unless you want to.
