What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

How much the social life revolves around fraternities and partying on weekends. Over 50{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the campus is in Greek life and if you are not interested in drinking there is very little to do during the weekend, but during the week there is plenty.

I wish I had known just how cookie-cutter most of the students would be. Often times in my first and second years I felt pressured to dress a certain way or got out with a certain crowd. But, the friends I made in my own circle were better than a sorority full of the Jersey Girls who I passed in the library.

Keri

It can be hard to get off campus sometimes

Jason

I wish I knew about the prevalence of Greek life on this campus. I'm a greek myself, however, it would be nice for there to be more events that are appealing to college students. But with friends, you learn to adapt.
