Frat Parties

There is no other night life than frat parties. There are two bars in town--the Palms, which is mostly frequented by townies, and Macado's, which seniors only go to sometimes to pregame the frat parties. Being underage is not a problem, as fraternities supply nearly all the alcohol one needs. Even as a senior girl, I only have to buy maybe 1 handle a month to pregame. Getting to and from parties is easy with Traveller. Mnost students go out at least three times a week. The big party nights are Wed, Fri, Sat, and the occasional Thurs, but smaller parties happen nearly every night. The University has an open-party policy, so anyone can go to any party. There is at least one party every few weeks that nearly the entire school comes to.

Pretty Helpful

Most of the campus security officers are only concerned with keeping students safe and out of trouble with the police. The LexPo are always really strict the first few weeks of the school year, but then really only show up to shut down the parties when noise permits are up. The administration seems accepts underage drinking as a reality of any college (Presdent Ruscio is on the Amethyst Initiative to drop the drinking age to 18)and put their efforts into teaching students how to drink responsibly. The school pays for Traveller to ensure that students don't drink and drive, and, as such, drunk driving rarely happens. The Campus Health Center is also open 24 hours and has a "safe haven" policy for students who go because they are sick from drinking or passed out. They will send you to the hospital if they deem it necessary.
