| I doubt my son feels left out-he keeps busy with activities and the trips to the mall. Actually, the school itself does not have vans that take kids to bars...those are the taxis that kids pay for themselves. I'm not naive to think he never drinks, but he has never gone to the bars or clubs, and has friends who like to hang out and have fun. He wasn't a partier in high school and he seemed to do just fine in finding people like him who enjoy watching sports, playing video games and getting involved in campus activities. He does have friends who do "partake", but he knows he doesn't have to do everything they do, and can enjoy their company anyway. He was very lucky to already have known someone who went there, and Facebook was great for him to get to know who else would be there on campus when he got there. Yes the partying goes on at this as well as every other campus, but its not everything....
