Pomona is great with setting up opportunities to get involved with something, whether it be a club, a sport, an organization, etc. Pomona leads numerous trips throughout the year to fun and exciting places and events all around the southern california/ los angeles area, and beyond. Socially, Pomona is a very open campus and it's pretty easy to make friends right away the way things are structured. Freshman year, students are placed in "sponsor groups" which consists of the other students in the hall they are living in, and the sponsor group typically ends up being like a family. Students doors are usually open, and students are typically open and inviting.
The party scene is at Pomona is decent, with a chance to go out just about every day of the week. Frat life isn't big on campus, and the few frats that do exist don't have houses or some of the other priviliges that frats on bigger campuses do. The other four colleges also allow for diversity in the party scene with Mckenna, Havey-Mudd, and Pitzer all a short walk away. In terms of frequency, a small number of students might go out four or five times a week, some once or twice, some none at all. There is no pressure in any direction and wherever you fall, there is a group of people similar to you. While many people drink, there is no pressure to and there are lots of alternatives. There is a group that puts on really fun, sober activities every saturday night and even kids that don't drink will go to the dance parties put on by the school. The alcohol policy on the campuses is pretty lax, and if your beverage is in an oblique cup, there is nothing administration or security can do to you. The school even provides kegs at some of the parties.
