Indiana University of Pennsylvania-Main Campus Top Questions

people have fun and do what it takes to get their major and their grades and have a great time in the free time.

There are alot of activities at IUP. Throughout the year there are many different events on campus that are open to all students. Campus activities are alot of fun and my friends and I enjoy attending.

When you are a music major, you are pretty much guaranteed to find friends. Your freshman year, you have a all your classes with the same people, not to mention ensembles. However, I do admit that if you are an instrumentalist, and you are not in marching band, most of the people in marching band have already made friends with everyone in marching band, so it might take a little longer to squeeze in. However, most music majors live in the same dorm because they have their own specialty floor and everyone leaves their door open. I meet my closest friends through the honors college and through the music department. The honors college forces you to get out there and make friends because you'll have to be working together for the next 4 years. When you take the same classes as everyone, you just find friends and end up going to lunch with them. Although my girlfriend is also in the music department, I did not meet her just because of that. One of my friends in my studio happened to be her best friend, so we all started hanging out together ever so often. Needless to say, I was irresistable, haha, j/k. There are 3 different music fraternities on campus: one all girls, one all guys, and one co-ed. I am not in any of the 3 and do not plan to be in any of them, but I also have friend who are in all 3 of them and they are also friends with each other. So, being in these fraternities does not create tension between people and how important it is to join. Finding friends on campus is not hard, unless you make it that way for yourself.

theres always something to do on campus. especially if your in a dorm, there always someone to hang out with, someones always up when your up.

greek life is a lot of fun. The intramural sports are entertaining. And clubs are huge at iup.

In the old dorms it was easy to meet people. Almost everybody left their doors open and wanted to meet new people. I haven't been in the new dorms but I have heard it's a little more secluded. people aren't as open and friendly, but you get the reward of living in a really nice place thats close to everything.

The above stands true here also.

Greek Life, keep you shit locked up it will get stolen. IUP sports don't matter.

I am a sister of Sigma Sigma Sigma and I love all of my sisters. The are normal and not caddy and thats why I joined. there are also organizations for each major which is a good idea because you are able to meet people who may have the same classes as you and you can help each other out. In the regular dorms student leave their doors open in the suites they don't. I met my boyfriend here through my friend. If im up at 2 am Im either out with friends partying, I am studying, or I am talking to my roommate. Side Walk chalk day is the best. You get to draw with sidewalk chalk and relate politcal or moral views. People party least once every two weeks. I feel that a sorority is important because thats a great safe way to meet people. There are alot of great little shops off campus. And the Gym has great hours and is free which is awesome.

SCCC. I think this has to be instated. Im sick of these pussy democrat liberals trying to take away my guns got dammut. If that happens ill still keep unregistered pistols but I dont want to. IUP is not a safe place at night and I dont care what people say, It's not. there are robberies, and black people selling drugs everywhere. they come from philly on grants and fail out ive seen it first hand. As a right winger im not afraid to let this be known. The dating scene is awesome, there are girls here, some are nice, some are sluts just like anywhere. If your awake at Tuesday on 2 am, you are either studying, drinking, or blowing cocaine. I have seen all three happening at the same time. Its a shame, but people need to wisen up.
