but usually there are always parties to go to

Not really... theres generally a frat party on either friday or saturday or both... And if not theres viva (the nightclub on college hill).. So theres always pretty much something to do... Theres also house parties going on, generally in junior or senior appartements...

The clubs in providence are pretty good too, though they are pretty strict with ID... So its tougher getting in.. But if you can get in, theyre worth it..

But note that while the clubs may be strict with ID's (Fishco, of course, is an exception), the frat parties do not check them at all...

What social scene?

One or two parties a week, if that, and good luck trying to find something to do on weekdays. It just doesn't happen.
