Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There is a geeky constituency at UR, seeing that it is a science-intensive school, but there are a fair share of attractive guys. Intellectually, there is a good chance of finding a guy who is not lacking in the brains department. The girls tend to be attractive and very put together, for the most part. They tend to be described in the middle scale of attractiveness. Everyone finds everyone else is friendly, so if nothing else, we all play well with others.

Because it is a school where all the students are on the same level intellectually, you will develop good relationships with people that are long-lasting. The only complaint of students is that both guys and girls tend not to approach others they don’t know, so some maintain the people are unfriendly at UR. However, at parties, people will get friendly and get to know each other better. Whether they talk to you the next time they see you on campus is another matter. There tends to be a flurry in the beginning of the year in terms of hookups and relationships, and it calms down as the school year progresses. Both sides have their share of attractive ones, and if relationships don’t blossom, there’s always the view.

It's an effort.

There's a few share of cute guys. The problem is that some of them are incredibly socially awkward. I'm sure not all of them are, but I've encountered some pretty awkward guys who act like they've never met people before. You really have to work hard to break the barrier sometimes. You can meet guys at a party and they seem pretty fun and all, it's just a different thing if they decide to talk to you the next day. I suppose my only advice is get involved in the social scene by going to school clubs/parties, be assertive without seeming too creepy, and all the luck you need.

Couples in a Sea of Singles

The social life largely revolves around performing groups at school. The sports do not get very much attention so people often go to acapella concerts or performances put on by various dance groups. These are plenty of frat parties for people to find hook ups if desired. In terms of attractiveness of the students, we lean towards the nerdier side of things. People are mostly average with some better looking and some worse looking people. Most people have long term relationships or are single and have some hook ups along the way.

Facts

Social Scene

Most of the parties on campus occur on the Fraternity Quad. You can generally find a party going on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights, with the occasional holiday. If you’re not into the Greek Scene, there are sports parties off campus, a couple of off-campus frats, and parties in Hill Court and Riverview.

Hookups or Relationships?

At the beginning, there’s a flurry of hookups, though it tends to taper off as the year progresses.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

Frat Parties, Starbucks, The Pit

Dress Code

Preppy/Casual. However, there are people who dress all ways. You can find Goths, Jocks, Hippies, Nerds, and just normal people.

College Prowler guides are in the hands of students throughout the entire process. Because you can't make student-written guides without the students, we have students at each campus who write, edit, and survey their peers for every guide that we publish.
