Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The first thing to remember is that this is Florida we’re talking about, so you’ll find a lot of people with tans and sun-streaked hair (if you go for the penguin look, this may not be the place for you to pick up a date). Many people—for some reason, mostly girls—tend to wear rather small clothes. Anyway, when they’re not sun-worshipping, a good number of students is busy praying to polo or Hollister. This is not really a bad thing because guys in khaki shorts and button-down shirts are pretty easy on the eyes, as are girls in low-cut rugby shirts and short tan skirts, and if Abercrombie is not your gig, there are more than enough people at UF who would agree with you. Basically, you can get away with any look you want when your school is the size of a town, and a liberal, laid-back town at that.

Basically, the sorority girls have their own style. They mainly wear dresses and stylish sandals to class or Nike running shorts. Fraternity guys will always be seen sporting khaki shorts and a polo at a fraternity/sorority function. Whether you are going out on the town or just heading to class, chances are you will see someone of the opposite gender who is attractive. It is up to you whether you actually do something about it.

Florida Is HOT

Florida weather definitely motivates young people on our campus to stay on top of their physique. The two on-campus gyms are swamped day and night full of frat guys and athletes pumping iron and girls in tight spandex in fitness classes and working on their abs. We have a ton of athletic clubs on campus for every major and many minor sports. Most everyone walks or bikes from class to class. There are always people jogging around campus or running stadiums no matter how hot it gets! Florida guys and girls spend time sweating it out in the gym and it definitely shows:)!

Best way to describe girls and guys at UF, is DIVERSE!!! That's why everyone loves it. You can find every type of person, and this makes it easy to make friends anywhere on campus. There are many sorority girls that are typically dressed well and pretty. There are fraternity boys who have a preppy style, and usually can be found at the gym or at the night clubs. There are very intellectual individuals, who are here for the purpose of learning and studying. While there are others who go to class with their clothes on from the night before. Everyone is different, and at UF, it's okay!!

Lots of Panhellenic Booty.

Greeks are everywhere and mainly all attractive. If you aren't part of a SO, good luck finding friends or a significant other. UF is pretty clicky. Lots of Asians that band together. People are very obnoxious, prideful and rowdy.

How would you rate the social scene on campus?

Facts

Social Scene

It's almost completely impossible to characterize the entire student body's social attitudes, but in general, people at UF are very outgoing. There aren't that many kids who will just walk up to unknown classmates and introduce themselves, but then again, anyone who does will probably be pretty well received. And of course, within their own cliques and social groups, Gators are usually quite gregarious.

Hookups or Relationships?

At a campus this big, there's plenty of both. You'll hear a lot of people talk about significant others, but in most circles, there isn't exactly a prejudice against more random hookups.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

Frat parties, class, clubs and sports, Southwest Rec, Plaza of the Americas.

Dress Code

In a state where December temperatures can reach 80 degrees, students like to keep their wardrobes pretty casual. For both guys and girls, owning at least one pair of khaki shorts is a must. Flip-flops are a staple, as is a Gator T-shirt—just don’t overdo the Gator gear. During the summer, it can rain nearly every day, so galoshes and a trendy umbrella should be on any future Gator’s shopping list. Gainesville temperatures do plunge unexpectedly and frequently, so plan accordingly. If you decide to roll out of bed 15 minutes before class in your pajamas, you won’t be the only one. Tank tops, basketball shorts, and track pants are all common class attire.
