Memphis
Memphis is a really cool city. There are lots of concert and sporting events downtown. There are tons of neat restaurants and shopping areas. Beale Street Music Festival is in May, which is a very popular event for many Rhodes kids. Memphis is normally thought of as a dangerous city but I have never felt threatened in any way nor have I had an issue with anyone in Memphis outside of Rhodes campus.

Off Campus Housing
Typically just junior and seniors live off campus, if they choose to do so. Some people stay on campus all four year, but if you decide to move off campus there are tons of options. Right outside of the Rhodes gates across University there are many street filled with houses where Rhodes kids live. Living off campus is typically cheaper than the on campus housing, although you do have to pay for utilities which can become very costly. The one thing I would be most cautious of is the safety of the location of your house off campus. Other than that, I will probably move off campus as a junior or senior just for a change. But many people really love staying on campus at Rhodes.

Girls and Guys
Here at Rhodes College you can find someone from each social group imaginable. There is a good bit of diversity on the Rhodes campus, which is something that I really like. You can find people that are just like you while you can also meet people who you might have never considered being friends with in high school.
