Quinnipiac University Top Questions

sororities and frats are the places to be on campus. i live in irma, so the doors are always open and the population is very friendly. hockey games get very packed. with regards to the dating scene, i think that most people are not looking for a relationship, but that could be because i a m a freshman. i met my closest friends through getting involved. to me, frats and sororities are very important to me. they throw the best parties and are very social. last weekend i went to frat parties both nights. when i go off campus i go shopping or out to dinner

frats and sors n very minimal here, there are however alot of other student run oragnizations, most people are comfortable leaving there dorrs open but they look automatically if you close them, the dating scene is pretty regualr for a colege atmosphere, speakers and guest come all the time, alot of times they try to force us to get involved by taking school seminars or having a million mandatory frehsman meetings, which get a lil annoying, if ur up really late on weekdays your either studying or creepin on facebook, and on the weekends your gettin drunka ta bar or a dorm party, good times, i roomed with my best friends frosh year so i got lucky n chose to live wit them gain this year, i go home about once or twice a month cause its conveinent fo rme, theres always like an organization thin to do on weekend nites, but pretty much everyone drinks, last weekend i drank moderatly thurs nite, wen tot visit a freind and drank a lil at his school fri nite, came back here and drank alot on sat nite, sunday is the ultimate hangover day, however there are a good number of athletes here so they dont really drink in season but usualy come to the parties any way, oh yeah and its nice that qui shuttles us to all the bars around here so we dont have to drink n drive but people are mad gross on like fir n sat nites so usually therea a pucker on every shuttle ride home, the ride is like 20 min but we all just deal, athletic events are not huge youll go see ur friends except for hockey n alsmost as much basketball, those two sports have a huge stadium and people all go and get really into those games (just the mens obviosly)

I mostly hear about the fraternities and sororities around campus. Athletic events are attended, but I wouldn't say they are as popular as other schools sporting events. My closest friends were my roomies freshman year and the girls down the hall from us that year. The dating scene is interesting...most guys aren't really looking for anything serious. If I'm awake at 2am on a Tuesday night then I'm most likely studying. People party as much here as they do at any other school I think, probably less. Fraternities and sororities are fairly popular among those who do them. Last weekend I hung out with friends, went hiking, played soccer.

I'm a member of Alpha Chi Omega and i think that Greek life is definitely something that people should consider being a part of. Most people leave their doors open in dorms... at least they did the first couple weeks of school to meet the people in their hall. You meet your closest friends through your room, your dorm building, or in clubs and different activities. People party every weekend, starting on Thursday night. There are many activities on campus on weekends that are fun and dont involve drinking.

There are many activities at QU that are prepared for us to enjoy. Many concerts, comedy nights, and weekly movies to go and watch. Plus there are many opportunities to get involved in greek life or other community service organizations to raise money in fun ways for very important causes. My closests girl friends are all from my sorority and the rest are from my classes, other organizations, or from dorm life.

Greek life is the best. You get a chance to be involved with the school community and the community around the school. There is a great bond that is shared among the members of the Greek community. Alpha Chi Omega is the best!

The social life is good, good amount of on campus parties as well as a night life in new haven. Generally you become friends with your roommates and people within your major and once you have your group of friends thats it. you hardly meet any one new.

The most popular organizations on campus are greek life and intramurals, and hockey is popular to watch. I am involved with Alpha Chi Omega, one of the three sororities on campus. We raise money for our philanthropy and genuinely have a good time. Students in hallway style living generally leave their doors open.

Doors are left open when someone is there. Everyone is looking to make friends and have a fun time!

The most popular groups are probably Student Programming Board or Student Government Association. I am involved in Greek Life in Alpha Chi Omega, but greeks are not big on campus. In my dorm, I live in one of the smaller freshman dorms, we always leave our doors open. But I know others dorms that are larger do not. Athletic events are popular for freshmen and sophomores opposed to juniors and seniors. At 2 am on a Tuesday I am probably up studying, but others could be partying. Thursday is a big party night for people to go into New Haven to the clubs and bars. If you choose not to drink on a weekend, there is an organization that plans alternate events for people to go to on the weekend nights such as movies, comedians, speakers etc.
