Everyone Looks the Same

It's an attractive campus, sure, if you are into conventional upper-middleclass white American good looks. You can pretty much sum up 80% of the student body that way.

Greek Life at Dickinson College

A-

Dominating

While admissions says that D'son is only about 25% Greek, the Frat/Sorority presence on campus is huge. I wonder if that statistic includes students abroad, or underclassmen who have yet to rush. Students are often brandishing their letters and the Caf is divided. Weekend partylife can tend to be very Greek-centric as well.

Local Atmosphere at Dickinson College

Boooooring

Carlisle itself has very little to offer in terms of entertaining young people. However, the proximity of Dickinson to major cities like New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia, DC, etc. offers some exciting travel opportunities.

Nightlife at Dickinson College

B-

Drinkinson

There is nothing to do in Carlisle, so on the weekend the whole campus gets drunk. The weekends get repetitive and most big parties are broken up, leaving a lot of people party-hopping in the cold, rainy weather. However that doesn't stop students from getting wasted in smaller groups.
