Is your school a"Party School"?

I suppose in every college you will find different factions that indulge in that type of behavior. But a student does not have to be part of it if she or he doesn't want to.

I've heard that some are noted for being a party school but I also agree with @kandae11 that students don't have to participate

I went to a private university started by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, so I don’t think there was any room for partying.

Luckily, I never went to a party college.

When our son was getting ready for his university education, we all knew that there would be some partying, but that wasn't the basis for his choice of schools. We looked at the employment rate and the rate of students who went on to take more degrees, and of course the distance played a factor also. He travelled 4 hours to his university, so that meant that he did not come home often, but he also chose not to live on campus (except for the first year) and he lived about 45 minutes away from the university because he wanted a place that he could study quietly without hearing about this party or that party.

2 State schools in Florida had that reputation--don't know if they still do. :O)

The U of Oregon is sort of a party school and the Arizona colleges have had reputations too.

Madison University had that reputation for a few years. I'm not certain if they still do.

I don't know if my college was considered a party school, I imagine a little bit since it was an art school haha I know ASU out here is a little bit of a party school, but still amazing people have graduated from it.

Maryland University was once known as a party school though it has since changed its reputation!!! I wanted to go there!! It was still a good school!! My uncle graduated from there!!! Glad I didn't go to a party school!!! 2 much partying!!! And I was a party girl!!!!

all my life I was enrolled to catholic schools, so not a party school. as you can tell.

Never went to party school my dear friend

I thought all colleges were like that..oh I see now they are ranking them. I had a ball when I was young but not actually anything to do with any school I was at.

It all depends upon the students. If they try to stay well then your college is well. But unfortunately my college is one of that college.

I did not go to a college where you went away and lived there. I went to one at night and worked during the day.

Some university students really like to party hard and don't worry too much about their studies.

I'm sure there are many of those everywhere and it is tough for college kids to try to go to school and stay away from that behaviour. And there are so so many that do that lifestyle and their studies suffer.

I remember when I was in college, they will have a disco party for the event of the school. I never like it.

I went to Macomb Community College, also known as "12 Mile High" - so yeah, you could def. call it a party school. Ironically, I ended up working there....for 5 years. But it was still a party school, even while I was working there. Made lots of friends. I'll always like that school.
