since clarkson is a small school, people who like to know 'everybody' will like it. walking through campus, you will probably always see at least two or three people you know. the weekends also almost always consist of going out to frat houses or just a friends house or dorm to drink, so if you like drinking socially, this is definitely the place for you. although there are also people who just like to chill out on the weekends with friends, so if you just like to relax on the weekends, there's people to do that with as well.
