University of Florida Top Questions

The social life at UF is fantastic, with options that anyone can enjoy. Many people like to go downtown on the weekends for the nightlife, while others prefer to go to university- or student-sponsored events. UF has a great intramural sports system, as well as many extracurricular organizations, such as social fraternities/sororities, as well as honor societies. UF gives students a great opportunity to meet new people, whether through classes, the dormitories, or social events. One of the best activities on campus is the football games during the fall. UF football is a great tradition that has been around for over 100 years. Students and alumni alike flock to the UF football stadium, better known as the Swamp, to support their team, and their ardor has earned UF recognition as one of the hardest places for an opposing team to play.

I'm involved in Alpha Phi Omega which is a Co-Ed Service Fraternity so I complete alot of differernt kinds of service for the community and campus. I'm also a member of Model United Nations and I've made a few trips to compete at MUN conferances. Students in my dorm don't usually leave their doors open, but the RA sometimes will when she's in. Athletic events are extreamly popular especially football and basketball games. However, other sports also have a large fan base. Gator Growl is a huge tradition that takes place in the fall semester the day after homecoming. Fraternities and Sororities are a big part of campus life.

There is a huge number of student groups on campus. There is a club for every imaginable hobby or group. Many of them have parties, dances, performances, and speakers which are enjoyable activities to go to that do not involve alcohol. Students in dorms do leave their doors open while they are there. Many people bond with and make close friends with the other students on their floor.

I'm a member of Alpha Phi Omega, a co-ed service fraternity, and Tau Beta Pi, an engineering honor society. Neither are greek, despite the names. Both of these organizations have enriched my life greatly, giving my life variety and depth. Personally, I hate the stereotypical college routine of weekends dominated by partying and drinking, and weeks of half-hearted studying. Though such routines are common, UF has provided me with other ways to spend my time - service projects and fraternity socials, free recent movies every weekend, great restaurants, and plenty of engineering work to sink my teeth into.

don't really know about alot of clubs and stuff on campus other than there's a whole lot of them...if you have the time. mythbusters came one time, they were pretty cool. it seems like fraternites/sororites run student goverment. student governement doesnt really to do anything except SNAP. there's stuff to do on saturday nights that doesn't involve drinking but most people either do nothing or drink it's kinda dumb

I don't really know alot about UF activities other than Alpha Phi Omega and oh i forgot the name of this other club that is like impromtu comedy. It' pretty cool, i went to see one of their shows, i have a friend in my dorm that part of the troupe. hm yeah there's some cool events that go one like mythbusters event and some of the speakers that come. people party like all the time. there's definately stuff that goes on with out drinking but not very many people do it and it's not in really large groups. i don't really know a whole lot about traditions that i haven't been around enough really to find them.

I love social life at UF. Since I'm a non drinker, I love to just hang in my dorm room and chill out with all the girls on my floor. I also am involved in a co-ed fraternity. I love everyone in it! Gator nights is also amazing. Every friday night, they show a movie in the Student Union, and we get free popcorn and soda. Sometimes, they have magicians and comedians. I love UF!

I would say political, religious, and greek groups are most prevalent. Students do NOT leave their dorms open. The security, in my opinion, is a little shaky. Kids will steal. And some might do worse. Athletic events, guest speakers, and theater get a large turnout. Sometimes people can get a little crazy over the athletics. The dating scene can be pretty interesting. There are so many opportunities to meet people here. If I'm awake at 2am on a Tuesday, I'm most likely with friends at my apartment, doing random stuff. Kids party a lot. No need to go into detail. Fraternities and sororities are pretty important. Not all of them are good, but they're all important. The only things we can do on a Saturday night that doesn't involve drinking are watching movies, going to restaurants, and playing games at people's apartments. Which is a lot of fun. I'm involved with Alpha Phi Omega. We are a co-ed service fraternity. And, not to be biased, but I would say our group has the best purpose out of all other groups. We focus on serving other people and the community instead of ourselves. We bond over projects and fellowships. I would say that joining APhiO was the best decision of my college career.

There is a lot of involvement from the student body in Greek Fraternities and Sororities. likewise, special interest groups have a large following. There are different groups that study intensely all the time and you can find them in the library, and there are those who frequent the down town scene. It depends on your study habits and what your goals are as to what you are capable of doing as a leisure activity. As a freshman we lived in a very friendly dorm where everyone left their doors open and we were all friends. That same atmosphere carried on into our apartments as our entire floor is friends and we frequently walk into each other's places without prior notice. It all depends on your friends group.

Football games! I was in a community service fraternity, which was very different from the typical Greek orgs. I met most of my closest friends through that. Less partying than most frat/sor. There's plenty to do, both in the area and through the school. Accent brings in great speakers; there are almost always performances or exhibitions going on. All students can use Lake Wauberg, which has swimming, beach, sailing, rock climbing, picnic activities, etc. One of my favorite things on campus was the free performances Theater Strike Force (improv troupe) did in Turlington plaza midday. Not associated with the University, the springs are nearby, and you can get to the beach in 70-90 minutes. Gainesville is very conducive to outdoor activities (except for August, when it's too hot to move).

living at UF gives students a quintessential college experience. from the community feel in dorms to gator game days to 24-hour pizza delivery, there is always something going on to make students feel comfortable. the accent speakers bureau seems pretty popular lately and the bars always are. greek life seems pretty prominent. they are active even if they only represent a minority. personally, i was sad when sorority bid day (and the subsequent running of the bulls) was no longer covered by the alligator. that was one of my favorite fall traditions! if social greek life is not your cup of tea but you want that fraternal feel to your organization, there are many non social greek orgs like alpha phi omega national co ed service fraterenity (haha i had to plug my frat, sorry!) in general, there is always something to do at UF no matter what time of day or night.

Football and basketball are the cornerstones of social activity. beyond this, there is a heavy population of students who associate with at least one student group and are able to assimilate within the society, broadening their horizons through it. On a Saturday night, one can go to midtown and see live music falling into almost any category at any of a number of places. During the fall, No Idea Records puts on "The Fest" which is a giant punk and indy music bands converging on Gainesville for a great time.

I'm a brother of the National Co-ed Service Fraternity Alpha Phi Omega.

UF always has something going on from sports event to guest speakers, we just recently had the mythbusters come out and talk. students that live in the dorms are very social with their dorm-mates and create really close bonds. partying at UF really just depends but there is always a party to go to somewhere. i met some of my closest friends from being a part of Alpha Phi Omega and also living in the dorms.

Sororities and fraternities are big here. Even if you aren't in one, odds are you know someone who is. The parties and events that the Greek life puts on is always fun. It doesn't matter if you are involved or connected to them, you know what is going on on campus because of them. Otherwise, the mix of organizations on campus is so vast, I can't even say what 'most students' are involved in. However, I do work with the Dean of Students Office and I know that places like the DSO and the Union sort of suck their employees in. If you are involved in one part of the DSO, odds are you are involved in another; the same with the Union. Again, if you put the time into working with those organizations, you clearly want to make an impact, so you are more likely to be overly involved. The dorm experience is so personal. I stayed in Jennings Dorm my freshmen year and my entire floor got along. We left our doors open all of the time and worked together on homework while hanging out. We loved one another. A few floors above us, the experience was completely different; they never hung out in the ways that we do. We were lucky with the kids on our floor. If it had been a different group, we would not have gotten along nearly as well. We still stay in touch and hang out. The athletic events here are awesome. Besides the regular sports (football and basketball), I have seen some awesome things. Our soccer team is really intense and I LOVE our gymnastics. The gymnastics meets are amazingly entertaining and I really enjoy seeing them on our campus. Guest speakers are very popular here, with some very notable celebrities coming to campus through Accent (the organization that runs the guest speakers). I've seen Elie Wiesel, Margaret Cho, Bob Saget, Mythbusters, Kevorkian, and a ton more. It's been really fun seeing all of these people on campus and it is something that I would not expect to get out of college for free! I met my closest friends through my co-ed fraternity. We are a community service fraternity (Alpha Phi Omega). I have met such a great group of people that have the same interests as me. Together, we have so many events planned that it is hard not to hang out with them all of the time! I am so glad I joined the fraternity because it gives me the chance to give back to my community, make a difference, and be with people who have the same goals. It is so much fun and I would recommend it to anyone I meet. I also got very close with my friends from my freshmen dorm. Like I said, we still hang out 2 years and a whole new living situation later! I'm always awake at 2am on Tuesday! I usually am doing homework by that point but there are definitely nights where people will be over at my house just having fun. Movies and coffee shops are still open. There is always something to do here. Steak and Shake is good for that kind of late night fun as well. People party here just as much as any other campus. There are sorority and fraternity parties pretty regularly but you don't necessarily go to them all of the time. I feel like I always know about them even though I've been to one my entire career here. There are lots of parties in general on campus and in apartment complexes - it's part of college. We love tailgating for our sporting events too. Those are always fun times if you plan it properly. The downtown area is also a lot of fun if you like to dance too. If you don't drink, downtown is still a fun option for you because you can dance with your friends and meet new people. And if you don't like downtown and don't drink, there are tons of events put on by campus for you to have fun (movie nights, guest speakers, groups putting on benefits, etc). There is something for everyone if you take the time to look for it and get out there. Part of the fun is trying new things, too. Once you get past freshmen year and get involved, you spend a lot of time off campus. I live off campus, so I do a lot of shopping there. I definitely like to hang out in the off-campus places, like Starbucks. We take mini-road trips to the springs and go tubing when the weather is warm enough. The springs are so nice and it is very relaxing. We also have Lake Wauberg, a lake that is free for UF students that has supplies for you to use, like paddle boats. It's also good for a day off campus, to relax, and to have a chance of pace from the monotony of school. It isn't hard to find things to do on campus but off campus offers a more open place for you to get out and have fun. It all depends on what you like to do - there will be something for you in Gainesville.

I am part of alpha phi omega and it is a great service organization. But if you aren't into that, there are plenty of social organizations as well as heritage ones.

The most popular activities are campus are getting involved with the greek life and intermural sports. I'm involved with Alpha Phi Omega, a co-ed services frat. It's a good idea to pick something to get involved with to make 50,000 people seem a little smaller. Dorms are decent at UF. I live in Beaty and I've made a lot of friends there. My room mates and I leave the door unlocked when we're in the room and people come in and out as they please. It's really nice. Parties are popular on the weekends. Lots of house/apartment parties to even goign downtown. Sometimes even Wednesday night is a popular night to hit the downtown area and go clubbing.

UF has so many opportunities to have a safe place to hang out with your friends. I am a member of Alpha Phi Omega, which is a community service fraternity that also has the responsiblity of running the information booth on campus and I will never forget my experience with my fraternity. UF holds "Gator Nights" at our Reitz Union every Friday night with various activities throughout the night, including a movie that is inbetween theaters and DVD. UF also brings in many different speakers. My favorite one that I went to this year was listening to the Mythbusters from the Discovery Channel.

Alpha Phi Omega was my saving grace during college. With an amazing group of people I developed leadership skills, provided service to my campus and community and made lifelong friends. I still hang out with my Brothers often, despite having graduated.

I think UF offers a lot of great social events. I really enjoyed seeing Bob Saget and the guys from Myth Busters. I wish I had gone to more sports events, since I only went to the football games. When I lived in Tolbert during my freshman year, I didn't make many friends. I'd say hi to people in the hallway and chat in the kitchen, but I wouldn't go out with anyone regularly (I also only lived there during the Spring semester.) No one ever left their doors open and rarely hung out in the common area. I met my boyfriend at Salsa Caliente, although he is not a UF student. I love the dancing clubs (swing and salsa) but they are also not strictly UF clubs. It's probably 60{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} 40{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of UF/non-UF people. Because I've been so busy with school the last few semesters, I haven't partied that much. When I do, it's usually when a friend from high school is throwing a party, or there's an occasion at work (RepDials for the Florida Fund) to celebrate. I prefer house parties to going to the bars, and I'm not really thrilled to the clubs downtown. I love dancing and going out at night (especially in Europe!) but the Gainesville night life just doesn't do much for me. To me, it is a sterile environment with too many Greeks and not enough genuinely cool people. On most nights during the week, I'm at home taking care of business or studying or else just hangint out wiht my boyfriend.

There is a lot to do at UF. I do not know where to begin. There is community service, job opportunites, internships, just plain old work. You can take leisure courses, learn how to scuba dive, take fencing classes, horseback riding classes. There is nothing you can't do at UF.

I live in Murphree dorm area. An area generally for upperclassmen that is really nice for a freshman, but it is a little anti-social, but there were so many opportunities to join an organization it was easy to meet people. Fraternities are big here and play big roles in not just social life, but school life. I joined a service fraternity and it has kept me busy. I like it because it is not so focused on partying as a regular fraternity would have, but social events still happen. I am a non-drinker and still am welcomed to attend parties and if I don't feel like going I could do something at the Reitz like a movie or some TSF (drama/comedy) show. Last weekend I did 10 hours of community service, a carwash to raise money, and a trip to Lake Wauberg for our service frat fellowship. It was a bit to much that weekend I must say. It was required though by the fraternity to do these things if I wish to become a brother. At 2AM on Tuesday I am asleep for classes the next day.

most popular: greeks i met my closes friends from living with them and being in a fraternity. i love it. i don't know about the dating scene cuz i just date somone if i like them and they ask me out, so i dont really know how it works. people party all the time. seriously. its cool. i mean classes are important so no everyone can party all teh time, there are just parties all the time and if yu can't make it, you can't last weekend i studied and watched a movie with some friends. you can all kinds of things that dont involve drinking. u can go play pool, watch a movie, stay in and play boardgames or just hang out and listen and dance to music.

Off campus usually involves house parties. Going to a typical college aprtment complex on a weekend , one is bound to find several parties raging. Students are very safe with drinking though, and the town of Gainesville has an accomadating bus service for students who do choose to drink

The Greek Fraternity and Sorority system is very prevalent because the members wear their greek letters as much as possible, but most students on campus do not belong to any sort of greek organization. Most of the clubs on campus use greek letters, although they are not a traditional Greek sorority/fraternity system. For example, I am involved in Alpha Phi Omega, a National Co-Ed Service Fraternity--we use Fraternity jargon like Brothers and Rush, but our main purpose is to serve our community. Some dorms on campus are known as social dorms, these are mostly the standard dorms with two people in one room, and a community bathroom on each floor. Nicer, suite-style dorms are less social because you have everything you need in your one room. I lived in an apartment-style dorm and had really great luck with my random roommates, they are my closest friends here at UF and it's ridiculous how close we have grown and how comfortable we are with each other. If we're up at 2 am, we are most likely just sitting around checking Facebook or talking and pretending to be working on homework. Depending on what type of people you hang out with, you could party every day of the week, once a month, or never. UF has weekly activities every weekend which you can attend for free and see movies that are sometimes still in theaters or not out on DVD yet, and they have free food and activities like getting pictures made or making keychains.

I am really active in Alpha Phi Omega co-ed Service Fraternity, and I have found my niche at UF. I love the people and the activities and knowing I can always count on my brothers. People party, but too much work and not enough play makes for a very boring person. I met my closest friends through APhiO and we are really close. The dating scene...let's see. It's a blast! Just be social!

The most popular thing to do at UF is join a social sorority or fraternity. As an alternative to that I joined Alpha Phi Omega which is a co-ed service fraternity that is a whole lot of fun. Athletic events are probably the most important though because everyone is a gator fan. Saturday game days are crazy at the Swamp, because afterall we are National Champions.

ACCENT is an organization on campus that brings many influential speakers onto campus, some recent ones: Bob Saget, John Kerry, Jack Kevorkian, and Bill Nye the Science Guy. Partying is a big part of campus, most aren't sober all weekend. But it is possible to do so. There are usually a couple of house parties going on you can go to. Or you can head downtown to dance. Gator Nights is an activity on Friday nights when you want to keep it low-key where it's free for students to make things, hear bands, watch new movies at the student union. It's really fun.

UF offers A LOT of opportunity to get out and be social. We have really interesting special events every semester for example, I saw both Bob Saget and the guys from Myth Busters this semester. When I lived in a dorm all the dorms on my floor were ALWAYS open and I met some of my closest friends living there. The rest of my best friends I met by joing Alpha Phi Omega, co-ed service fraternity. Being a brother in A Phi O has really made my college experience beyond amazing.

When I lived in the dorms, we had out dorm open almost all day. Our hall was very social. It was also nice to have a study room in the dorm building so I could get away from the noise and buckle down- and I could do so without leaving the building. People do party a good amount, but I had countless Saturday nights where friends and I didn't have a drop to drink and had the time of our lives. Roadtrips were a big hit in my group- it was fun to drive a few hours, camp for the night and see a new part of Florida if we could.

Students in my dorm leave doors open! No one really goes to the events, though. We just hang out here.

The social life here is pretty banging. It's a fun time while still keeping school in mind. The parties don't get too wild, but enough to have a good time while taking a break from the books.

Students on my dorm floor tend to leave their doors open. We are a pretty social floor, but I know some that are not. I met my closest friend, by my introducing myself to the girl next door. I am involved in two groups, SONG and Alpha Phi Omega. SONG is a acapella singing group that goes out in the community to homeless shelters, nursing homes, etc. and sings to people. Alpha Phi Omega is a co-ed community service fraternity, but it is not greek. It is a great group to belong to! We do community service all the time and we even run the UF Information booth in Turlington. We help out where ever we are needed.

There are a lot of social fraternities and sororities on campus. There are also a lot of student organizations. However, being in these organizations doesn't define you. It is not mandatory to be in an organization to have friends at UF.

Athletic events are VERY popular here. Game days during football season pretty much revolve around...football. Guest speakers are also pretty popular. We have an ACCENT speakers bureau that coordinates all the guest speaker stuff. We've had some interesting people come to our campus, plus it's free! My closest friends I met in the dorm, in some classes, in my co-ed fraternity, and doing community service projects. I'm awake at 2am on Tuesday a lot, and I'm usually doing hw at that point. People party a lot here. Fraternities and sororities have a lot of pull here, and there are a lot of them. Last weekend I took my pledge final, went to two fellowships, did a fundraiser carwash, and went to coffee with a friend.

As I said earlier, it's important to be a part of something or some organization on campus. Greek societies definitely rule the school with so many organizations and a semi-control on the party scene. Sporting events always draw a crowd, and so do some theatre and music events. So long as ACCENT keeps bringing in good speakers than they're always going to have a big crowd. There are groups for everyone and anyone really.

There are tons of organizations at UF, one for any interests you may have. And if they don't you can create your own club very easily! I personally find that Fraternity I joined, Alpha Phi Omega, was a awesome decision as it is a great way to meet people without the cost of a social fraternity.

Greek fraternities and sororities seem to be the most popular things on campus. The Student Alumni Association seems pretty good too. I'm involved with Alpha Phi Omega, which is a service fraternity (not associated with the Greeks). Some people will leave their dorm room doors open if they are in their room and not doing anything. Athletic events are extremely popular, especially football and basketball (although baseball and gymnastics are pretty popular too). Guest speakers get a good attendance rate from the student body. I don't think too many students go to shows at the theaters sadly. Most of my closest friends I either met while I was in high school or grade school, in Alpha Phi Omega, or in one of my classes. I have a lot of close friends. If I'm awake at 2am on a Tuesday, I'm rushing to get all of my homework done so that I can get a semi-good night's sleep. The Undy-Dash is a pretty good tradition as well as the Orange and Blue game and Gator Growl. A lot of people party.. it's probably safe to say that most people party. Frats and sororities are only important to the people who are in them. I'm personally not a fan of Greeks. Last weekend I took a trip home to Boca Raton to be with friends and family since a friend of mine was killed in a biking accident. In Gainesville? There's not much to do on a Saturday night that doesn't involve drinking. Well, you can do everything without drinking (going to clubs, bars, Skate Station, bowling alleys, movies, etc.) but it isn't as much fun. And people more often than not are drinking there. Off campus I try to relax as much as possible. And work.

I am involved in a co-ed community service fraternity. Through this organization I have made many friends. What I like most about it is that I feel that I have made a big impact on the community. I have helped plan many community service events such as a Girl Scout field day, voulenteering at the local nursing home, and working with animal services.

A large number of students on campus belong to sororities and fraternities. That's not to say they are the most popular, they are just definitely the most prevalent. Social sororities and fraternities are very very active in Student Government life and give little chance to any other organization to take part in these politics. I, personally, am involved in a co-ed, service, fraternity (not a social one) and have found that this is exactly where I fit. When I lived in a dorm the first summer I came here, all the girls left their doors open. It was a very social, fun environment. When I started in the fall in a different dorm, no one left their doors open. I think everyone was eager to meet others when they first got here in summer, but probably decided they'd met enough people by the fall. Football is HUGE here! Game days are the most exciting, exhilarating days you'll experience at UF. There are a ton of traditions and events associated with football that involve everyone from students to alumni to athletes. The university also plans a lot of events such as guest speakers, movie nights, shows, etc. to help students have fun without being in danger.

Greek life is alive and well at UF, to the disappointment of some and the joy of others. There are also "fraternities" such as Alpha Phi Omega (a coed service frat) that use a lot of the traditions of the Greek system but aren't part of the actual Greek system. You set your social life, if you don't get out there and find things to do, you will be bored. If you look for stuff to do and people to meet, you will find them.

drinking on this campus is a big problem. there may be tons to do that doesn't involve drinking but students will find a way to make sure they are drunk when they reach their destination.

There are several large organizations on campus. Campus Crusade and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes are both well-represented, as are the Jewish and other religious students. In addition, the intramurals at UF are extremely well-organized and offer a wide variety of options for sport and activity. The athletic program here is one of the best in the country without question. Throughout the academic year, there is at least one major sport in full swing, including football, basketball and baseball, as well as gymnastics, soccer and softball. Fraternities and sororities make up about 17{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of students on campus, so they are visible but not overwhelming. There are plenty of activities to engage in without drinking, both on and off-campus. The school puts on Gator Nights every Friday night and is always showing free movies. Additionally, there are malls, amusement centers, downtown restaurants, flea markets and Jai-Alai all within 15-20 min of campus.

UF has many social networks, and there are many things to do on campus. Living in a dorm is one of the fastest and easiest ways of getting to know others. Being involved with an organization is another fun way to do that. UF brings many popular guests here, including Elton John, MythBusters, Bob Saget, Dane Cook, and more. We also have the largest student-run pep rally, called Gator Growl, every fall before our homecoming game. Many people are involved with greek life, and they have an enormous political influence over the happenings at the school as well as holding office in the Student Government. UF has many avenues for community service that I personally like to take advantage of. We also have property on a lake about 10 miles away from campus, where students can participate in water sports, rock climbing, or simply hold a cookout.

There is always something to do.

I hate student government. Most of the money from student government goes to frats and sororities. They waste so much money. We could be sending that money towards more liberal arts and science classes. Most people do not even care about student government. I think the student voice should be heard but we can be heard with less money.

There is to much to do socially on this campus, there are multiple organization. I feel greek life is huge at UF but that could be just because i am in it. Dorms are also very social for freshman any time i come home there is someone also down stairs i know;

The most popular groups of people on campus are the Greeks and athletes. I am Greek and love it! Yes students in dorms leave their doors open. Athletic events at UF are a must-see. Guest speakers are very popular. The theatre is okay. Guys don't really like to date. They like to hang out and watch movies or party but not take girls out on actual dates. I met my closest friends in my sorority. If I'm awake at 2am on a Tuesday I'm probably at a social. People party alot. Greek life is very important. Last weekend I went to several fraternity parties and studied and laid out during the day. On Saturday night, you can go to the movies, go to dinner, or even go out without drinking.

I would have to say Greek life is the most popular collection of organizations. I'm involved in Delta Zeta and I love it: meeting so many girls, community service, philanthropies, going out, it has really made my college experience. I don't know very many students who leave their doors open, but I do live in a smaller dorm. The athletic events are very popular. Guest speakers and theater is also pretty popular I guess, it's just obviously not publicized as the athletics. The dating scene is okay, even though I feel like too many people get together when they are drunk at a party or bar. My closest friends are in my sorority. Dance Marathon is a tradition that happens every year. If you wanted to, you could find people to party with every night. Thursday nights are pretty big though. Fraternities and sororities are pretty important because they are involved with a lot of other organizations on campus, and they are able to get on the inside through their greek counterparts. On a dry Saturday night, you can watch movies, go bowling, just hang out with friends or play recreational sports for fun.
