No, not really.

Of course, near any college campus there are going to parties, and I do admit IUP may have more than others. Parties, however, have nothing to do with how well you can accel academically at IUP. Going into my junior year, I think that I am getting a great education. My friends in the Robert E. Cook Honors College also tell me that they think that they are getting an excellent education in their respective departments. And we have time to party, on the side.

somewhat, every school you go to your always going to have the party kids but for the most part theres a lot to do around campus and life there is pretty much what you make it

IUP is a fun place, i would definitely recommend staying on campus your freshman year. Living in the dorms is where you meet most of the people on campus. I would consider it a party school, the bar scene is pretty lame so friends houses are always better.

Only a percentage of the student body are party people. Unfortunately, "one bad apple..."

some are some aren't. I don't know anyone that has an STD or anything like that although people do hook up alot. Yea we do party alot, there is usually always fraternity parties on weekend nights and usually always random house parties to find. people go to the bars alot if you are of age. Mainly there is always people drinking heavily and having a good time.

You make school what you want it to be

Somewhat, people party at every college around America, why is IUP any different? I think IUP gives more people a chance than expected, the ball is in your court, if you want to piss it away partying, go ahead in my opinion. People dont realize the opprotunity that they have to get a college education. The black problem is true though, most of the crime committed is by blacks from Philadelphia. Atwater needs to chill.
