<p>As a parent of W&L nondrinker I will tell you that you will find friends that think the way you do and you can enjoy the parties and concerts. There are kids who do not go Greek. Definitely plan on a pre-orientation trip, it’s a great way to meet people and to do some great community service which is big at W&L. There is actually a whole concentration on poverty and lots of opportunities to get involved. Outdoor activities are big. A one-time fee allows you to check out equipment and go on hiking, rock climbing trips. It may not be your thing, but my child has become very involved in one the large religious groups that offers a lot of activities and studies. The international students seem to be very active although that is not my child’s thing. The arts scene seems good for a school of this size - already received a mailing of concerts and student recitals. As with most colleges, you’ll get out of it what you put in. Again, highly recommend pre-o trip.</p>
