Well, my uni has one of the largest campuses in England (which probably makes it tiny compared to yours :P) and most of the younger students seem very engaged. There are all sorts of rallies, table-top sales, faculty society pub-crawls, sports stuff etc and all seem very well attended. But the partying seems the biggest pressure. There are always gigs and parties and club nights and everywhere you go on campus there are people handing out flyers.

Many of the gigs are actually on campus. Some pretty big names play at Leeds and always have. The Union buildings include 3 nightclubs, an underground shopping mall and a bunch of other stuff. The Refectory has hosted many big gigs as well. And the campus is in the heart of the city so nightlife is a major draw.

Yeah, probably just the difference in location. Besides drinking, smoking weed, playing video games, and studying, the only other activity will be football or basketball games. If you didn't have to walk three miles every day to get to your classes I would think the average weight would increase by a good ten pounds...

But I do live in Minnesota....a good body doesn't mean anything in the winter.

I lived in Minneapolis for 10 years. I can picture these ladies in winter wear. They'd look pretty good... in anything. :D

Haha, well once the Vikings are out of the dome they won't be wearing that. That's for certain.

But once you start hitting -40 degree windchills, five or tens pounds will go unnoticed because of the five inches padding being applied to stay warm.

I really don't like the look on those girls' faces; they're creepy.

and yes, I did look at their faces.

eventually.

I'm with you, Cloud. Cheerleaders are supposed to be cheery, or at the very least pleasantly enticing. Third from the left looks like a fucking robot.

That's what paper bags are for. :bolt:

Wright State is . . . not like that. ::shrug::

I don't know how different I'd see it if I were younger, single and lived on or near campus, but it looks pretty damn boring.

classicman 10-22-2009 07:34 AM

Thats because you are there during the day - its all part of the conspiracy. :cool:

Wright State is Conservative! Full of ROTC, nerds and Doug Neidermeyer's. Me and Juni are the only cool people there. ;)

Juniper 10-22-2009 08:29 AM

Our ROTC friend is pretty cool too, though. Even if she is too damn cheerful all the time.
