Lehigh, like most schools, is mixed with the gorgeous and the not-so-gorgeous. Unfortunately, as Lehigh gets harder to get into, the general attractiveness of the population has decreased. Most girls agree that the guys are hot, and although some of them have big egos, many of them are very friendly and outgoing. The guys are mostly pretty boys and preppies. Guys are a little more reluctant to call the girls hot, but the hesitation is borne out of many girls’ personalities. While there are a lot of chill, fun girls, the hotter ones tend to be very bitchy and either already have boyfriends, some kind of borderline personality disorder, or both. As a result, the guys drink very heavily and tend to hook up with less-attractive girls, much to the enjoyment of their friends, who will not hesitate to make fun of them relentlessly the next morning.
Due to the sheer volume of drinking that occurs at Lehigh, there is a huge number of random drunken hookups on any given night. Inhibitions disappear, standards vanish, and beer goggles ensue. Though some students will develop relationships, Lehigh is not much of a dating school. The lucky few who do find that special someone often become completely involved in their relationships, effectively shutting out their friends and shunning parties. Doing so is a huge social mistake, which is why most couples will do their best to balance their relationship, schoolwork, and social lives. Many students will probably have at least one real relationship during their four years here, but Lehigh has always had a random hookup, one-night stand social atmosphere.
