Pretty People

The majority of the peple at U-M are good looking. In addition, most of them look pretty fit and dress well. There are, of course, those people who look like they rollout of bed every morning and eat three jelly donoughts on the way to class, but you'll find them at every school unfourtunately.

Reviewing U of M Guys

Pretty much all the guys are book smart. The real issue here is, very few seem to have common sense or decency. If you have devout Christian beliefs, like I do, you'll probably find that the vast majority of guys (students period, really) are pretty anti-Christianity... and act like it, too. The best place to find a good guy is at church, or at some kind of event meant purely for helping others. My experience is, engineers are actually some of the most decent guys I've met. LSA guys often have a reputation for being frat boys, drunks, or some other such unattractive category.

Nerd School

If you like nerds, there are plenty here. Cute, smart, and awkward. There are also a lot of hipsters. There's a lot of diversity.

However, there is no shortage of awkward-to-the-point-of-annoyance people here. They have intellectual brains, but no social smarts.

Facts

Social Scene

Like all colleges, the social scene at Michigan revolves around the weekend. Depending on your scene, most of the action happens at the bars, house parties, or frats, with the most hookups taking place at frat parties, although the bar brings its fair share of hookups.

Hookups or Relationships?

For the most part, serious relationships aren't all that common on Michigan's campus. The ongoing hookup is common, but relationships at UM never seem to advance much beyond that. Of course, there are people that have serious relationships, and people do couple off, but mostly, it's just big groups of friends going out together.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

At Michigan, there is no best place to meet others, but some of the most obvious hotspots are frat parties, house parties, in class, and dorms. Yes, class was included in that list. In certain classes, especially those that are discussion-based, it's quite easy to turn on the charm and win someone over. It happens time and time again (just one more reason to pay attention in class). Of course, the Greek scene is like one large family where everyone seems to know everyone else, so you can always get set-up that way. Another social atmosphere is the UGLi (Undergraduate Library). It sounds dorky, but this is one of the largest social centers on campus. People don’t study at the UGLi because it’s peaceful and quiet, they go to do group work, and often it’s abuzz with chatter. You’ll always see someone you know, and, if you’re doing group work, it’s the perfect place to work your “Don Juan” magic.

Dress Code

Basic casual attire is best. There are a lot of artsy students that do not wear name-brand clothing.
