<p>Events: Yale puts up about 4 theatrical shows per week. There are several improv comedy groups, numerous dance troupes, almost 20 a capella groups, several official and more unofficial musical groups. This means there is lots of artsy/cultural stuff every week/weekend. 30+ varsity athletic teams means tons of sports to watch. Several famous, renowned or otherwise relevant people speaking on campus each week. A frat party or two every weekend. Dozens of parties in suites going on every weekend. Special, theme parties thrown by a particular residential college (think Casino Night) on a more than monthly basis. Student art exhibits. Poetry reading. The Yale Iron Chef competition. And on and on. This is just an incomplete overview of “events”, not a discussion of extracurricular life in general.</p>
<p>At one point Yale had a student film festival, not sure if they still do. The Sudler Fund (I think that’s the fund) has been generous with financing student filmmaking. Yale has lots of connections to Hollywood. </p>

<p>Agree with everything T26 said about New Haven being excellent and the advantages of going to college in a smaller city.</p>
