Clancy’s Bar
College Prowler Take
Nightlife revolves around on-campus parties and the two popular bars in town. Although there is not much to do in Delaware if you are not 21, it isn’t hard to find a place to party almost every night. All-campus dance parties at the fraternities are always very popular, as are smaller nightly gatherings in the rooms of the residence halls. Being in such a small town, partying options are very limited unless you travel to Columbus. There are always a few options to hang out and party, whether it be in rooms, fraternities, bars, or at off-campus houses being rented by OWU students. Almost every week, there is some campus-wide party that can attract a few hundred students throughout the night and be a great time until three or four in the morning. Often, students find themselves traveling in groups around campus from party to party throughout the night. Campus police are sure to show up at almost every large event just to check to make sure there aren’t any illegal activities, and they won’t hesitate to break up parties. Noise can be a problem, especially in the dorm rooms. If you are smart about it, you can party and drink in your room without being bothered by campus police, as long as you aren’t disturbing your neighbors. Throughout the year, students will experience all-campus dance parties, theme parties, drinking fests, dorm parties, and simply hanging out with friends into all hours in the morning.

There always seems to be a party on campus (especially fall semester, when the party animals haven’t failed out yet). If one of the fraternity houses isn’t throwing one (rare), you’ll find something at a student’s off-campus house. |

There is definitely a party scene both on and off campus, but it is not overwhelming. Students do party, but a lot of people choose to do so in smaller groups. Fraternities are popular, and so are off-campus student parties. Most parties are all students. There are a couple of very popular bars in town; The Backstretch is probably the most popular for students. There aren’t any really good clubs in town, though. |

Parties on campus rock. Seriously....
Parties on campus rock. Seriously. I’ve thrown parties and gone to parties in places that parties were so illegal. We could have gotten into so much trouble (underage consumption, unregistered party, just to name a few), but it was the time of our lives! I love partying just about anywhere on campus, because just about anywhere on campus, you’ll run into someone who wants to party, too. |

The big parties on campus are...
The big parties on campus are mostly fraternity-centered, but smaller parties in the dorms can be just as fun sometimes. You will have the opportunity to party as much as you want to, but if the proper balance between work and play is not struck, you will find your time at OWU to be difficult and short. |

Parties on campus are relatively...
Parties on campus are relatively common and are sponsored by a variety of groups, the most common being fraternities and SLUs (small living units). Themed parties are common, and students have a great time going out together. There aren’t a lot of clubs and bars in Delaware, but there are always things going on around campus for students to enjoy. |

There are no clubs that students regularly go to in Delaware, but many are available to suit any wants in nearby Columbus, Ohio.
Bar Prowler
If you want bustling nightlife at OWU, you have to head to Columbus, but there are two bars in the neighborhood that students do frequent.
Bar Listings
Clancy’s is a local bar often favored by locals. It offers very cheap drinks and live music by local bands. Besides the Backstretch, Clancy’s is the only other bar that OWU students ever go to on a regular basis. Clancey’s Pub 40 S. Sandusky St. (740) 362-3042
The “Stretch” is the favorite place for nightlife in Delaware for students. It often offers live music and many student specials throughout the week. It is always a good place to find something going on every night of the week. The Backstretch Bar 14 S. Sandusky St. (740) 369-9883
What to Do if You're Not 21
There is a coffeeshop downtown called The Mean Bean Caffeine Lounge that you can find students at once in a a while, but it is definitely not a big hangout. Your best bet would be the dorms, fraternity houses, or off-campus houses.
