I’m a junior at Bowdoin. People do date here, and no one will judge you at all for not wanting to hook up with other people. As to what’s the party scene like: it depends what you’re into. There are the loud, crowded parties–that tends to be where many first years end up, but as I got older I tended to gravitate towards smaller parties with friends. Any decently sized group or club on campus, such as a capella, will probably offer the occasional get-together like that as well. There will certainly be people around you who choose to hook up and date, and as to whether that will be stressful for you, I can’t know. Still, no one will judge you for not wanting to hook up.

I also chose between Bowdoin and Midd. I would be extremely surprised if there was any meaningful difference in this regard.
