Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The rumors surrounding the people at NAU abound. Your uncle once told you that all of the guys smoke pot and refuse to use soap. Your friend's boss told him that all of the girls are overweight. Nevertheless, the guys and girls at NAU are nothing like what people say. Everyone is very laid-back and friendly. Groups are gender-integrated, and it's easy to meet a potential ex-boyfriend or girlfriend at any moment. The guys' styles range from preppy to hippie. On the average, you'll find about 10 alcoholics for every nice single guy, but the gender ratio is in full effect, so there are litters of girls to choose from. The ladies' styles are far less diverse, but most are very sweet and have that girl-next-door cuteness.

Dating is common on the mountain campus, but if you're looking to just hook up, there is plenty of action for that, too. Parties are the place to be for random sexual encounters, and the Lumberjacks are not shy about doing the dirty. The residence halls allow visitors without needing to check in, so don't be afraid about bringing people back to your room. The University considers everyone an adult, so make sure to put on your big kid pants. When it comes to guys and girls at NAU, you'll find that the people are very friendly and receptive, and there's a group for just about everyone to fit into.

The People Here Rock.

The guys at school aren't especially attractive but everyone is so jovial and cool that it's hard to care much. People are fun and quirky and its easy to find people you can be friends with forever. As to looks, there are two seasons for shoes. Season one everyone is wearing flip-flops, toms, or Chucks. Season two is boots and tennis shoes.

Girls Are Cute, Boys Are Good or Bad

The girls of NAU are mostly cute and friendly; however, guys are either hot and douches or okay and sweethearts. You have to surround yourself with the right people, and there are plenty of good ones.

Friendly Environment You Won't Find Anywhere Else

Being a freshmen at Northern Arizona University, I was surprised to see how other students as well as professors and staff are easy to get along with. No matter where you go on campus there will always be someone saying hello with a smile.

Facts

Social Scene

Students here are very friendly and warm. It's easy to strike up a conversation with a complete stranger. No matter where you are, most students are generally very easy to talk to. During their first few years of school, many students attend on-campus activities and programs. It's very easy to meet people simply by approaching them and introducing yourself. All the stereotypes are here, so there's a clique and a group for everyone to fit into—it's simply a matter of saying hello.

Hookups or Relationships?

Students usually enter the University while involved in a relationship. The first year of college does not yield the bliss and beauty that poor Jack and Jill had expected from the profoundly deep and fulfilling two weeks they had spent together in high school. As their college careers progress, students move on from their first relationships and seem to hook up with and date a large number of people. As they creep nearer to graduation, many students begin to settle down and once again enter committed relationships.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

Meeting someone on the mountain campus is very easy. NAU is very much a residential campus, so many of your options for dating will be on campus. Because people are so friendly, most are approachable and easygoing. Have the confidence to introduce yourself, and most NAU students will respond positively.

Classes are always a place to meet and greet the potentials. Group projects, copying notes, studying together—the possible date opportunities are next to endless when you throw textbooks into the romantic fold. If you want to work out, check out the Rec Center for all sorts of finely tuned bodies.

Dress Code

For the guys, skater/snowboarder/bro clothing seems to be popular, especially among frat guys. Dreadlocks and Rasta garb are also seen in hippie-driven Flagstaff. Once in a while, you'll get your pretty-boy, A&F-wearing, American Eagle-toting guy that definitely aims to look his best at all times.

There are many female athletes and a few hippie, non-showering types, but they are rare. Most of the girls come across with that girl-next-door kind of cuteness and charm. Not much makeup, classy clothing, cleanliness—these girls will look good but will not intimidate you.

A popular movement on campus for both guys and girls is the American Apparel-driven "hipster" movement. Got a pair of really skinny jeans? A brightly colored V-neck? A pair of over-sized sunglasses or black rimmed glasses? You'll fit right in!
