Stefanie

Greek life is popular. Sports are also popular. In some dorms people leave there doors open in others they don't. I go to sleep at night. I study hard. I don't drink a lot so I watch movies.

The UofA has a great greek program, everyone fits in somewhere and it is a great way to meet new people and it really does help your GPA, my GPA has rose dramatically since I joined Alpha Delta Pi last fall. The University of Arkansas also offers many educational speakers that are usually free to attend which I think is good to do on a College campus because most college students are broke most of the time. The two dorms that I have lived in made me feel safe, I would however lock my door at night because my roommate was never there and i do not really like leaving my door open when i am sleeping. Usually if i am awake at 2 in the morning i am studying for tests.

I am involved in Sorority life and being involved in that keeps me busy but I love it. You get to meet so many people and go to so many acitivities that I probably would never have gone to if it wasn't for being greek.

Lauren

I think fraternitits and sororites are important, you can meet some of your closest friends that way and its a good way to all get together and help your community as a group. People party alot here, there is functions all the time or people can hang out at the fraternity housees or go to Dickson St. to the bars.

Being a part of a sports team, associated student govt., intermurals, and greek life are really popular. Most all freshmen live in the dorms. Athletic events are really popular and the student section is packed. We've had some really intersting guest speakers such as Anderson Cooper and the Foo Fighters came for free as well. There dating scence is people tend to date people in thier social circle ie greeks dates greeks. People are also into long term relationship. People party Thursday- Saturday. People do more than party though, some people like to study and go out to dinner and others enjoy going to the clubs, bars and frats,. Overall if you don't want to drink you don't have to. Religious organizations are really popular as well, and many students are Christians. Off campus people go out to eat and shopping.

Amy

The most popular organizations are any greek organization, the football team, the basketball team, and most other sports teams. If I happen to be awake at 2 am on a Tuesday I am either working on homework, completing duties as a resident assistant, or talking with a close friend.

Kara

If I am awake at 2am on a Tuesday..... Like now! I am with at least 4 friends, a pizza, the TV, and probially on facebook. We have the time of our life every day. And the 2am on a Tuesday nights are what you remember about college, not what you made in Communications Power Point project, but how you put it off till the next morning because you had to watch that movie down the hall.

Juliana

Lots of different activities to get involved in and it's easy to find them and get involved. New members to groups are always encouraged.

Robyn

I think that Greek Life really controls the school, I don't know what I would do without it. Most of my friends are involved in Greek Life.
