<p>Same here…</p>
<p>party at warren</p>
<p>I’m so glad to see this movement. I was getting worried…</p>
<p>I’m sure you all are just going to be on the CC forum waiting for incoming freshmen to ask how the social life here is and you will reply with “it’s what you make of it,” (gosh, i hate that stupid cliched phrase)
“you can find a party if you want, but who would want to, when you have computer!!!” but yeah, I’m boring too, I should just post the constitution here to display how boring I am…
We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.</p>

<p>I’m in!
I know that some of the colleges are quite the partiers. I was Muir I think. Lucky for me, I’m in Revelle, so I can have the nice, quite dorm while the rest of you have to clean up after the party </p>
<p>I guess I’ll have to be the Revelle recruiter…</p>
<p>I’m in revelle too and def down to hit up a party…anytime…</p>
<p>muir will be a nonstop parrtay…yes</p>
<p>Are the rest of the Sixthers really going to leave me as party liaison for our college? Think about what your doing. Think of the children!</p>
<p>Seriously, I’m in. We’ll revamp the social scene. Our batch > the entirety of San Diego.</p>
<p>Hmm. I’m with the “artsy fartsy boring girls” that “go to dances by themselves/in large groups of girls” in ERC. Hopefully all that is wrong. But if not, i’m going to be needing Kenny/someone from Muir to adopt me on the weekends.</p>
<p>Man, you all better stick to this plan…I don’t want to have my friend drag me off to SDSU for parties every weekend!</p>
<p>I’m with you, vii. There better be SOMETHING going down at ERC.</p>
<p>elizabeth, we’ll MAKE something go down. I’m hunting you down the first week we get there!</p>
<p>can we make this an inner college attempt? please?</p>
<p>sigh…we all say this then we’ll get sucked into their lethargic neurosis and we won’t escape…I’m sure people have tried in years past…</p>
<p>ew…that’s a depressing thought. f’real, you guys. we need to pinky promise or something, cuz if UCSD ends up being as boring as everyone says it is…the next 4 years are going to be pretty damn ugly.</p>
<p>I kinda have to agree with lecorbeau on this one…</p>
<p>The problem I think alot of people aren’t seeing is that the lack of UCSD social life is a product of the academics and the six college system. If everyone complains about the lack of social life, that implys that all of these people want a better social life. Theres no way that UCSD is simply full of 20,000 boring people. This leads me to conclude that its something else: I’m sure people in past years have been determined to change that social life reputation, and I’m sure many are successful in their own small worlds, but not for the school overall. The cliche statement is true: if you try and make your own social scene, you can make it work for yourself… but realize that not EVERYONE is doing that, thus UCSD will still maintain its non-party rep. Thats why you can find people at UCSD who say “man, the social life sucks” and the people who say “whatever dude, I party every weekend!” Sadly, the majority are the ones saying it sucks. This doesn’t happen merely because the kids don’t try and have a social life, but because its difficult to balance UCSD academics and quality social life.</p>
<p>While the six college system is nice in dividing such a big school into smaller communities, it does just that – divides you, puts you at separate locations in the school, and makes your community smaller. You may see this as good or bad, and as helpful or detrimental to the social scene. </p>
<p>The problem is that the academics and courseload are intense at UCSD, and it turns party-goer’s such as yourselves into study-goer’s. For a little while, you spend all that time cooped up in the library studying while wishing you could be out partying, and after a while of having to always pick study over party, you become accustomed to that lifestyle. Granted, it has the beach and everything, but alot of kids really dont have the time to go down there. Because of UCSD’s tough workload, its alot easier to say that you won’t get sucked down by it than it is to actually maintain that delicate balance between social life and academic life.</p>
<p>I suppose we could just perpetuate the cycle. Alright, so maybe we won’t have as many parties as SDSU. (We WILL have a kegger sometime, I assure you. University policies be damned!) But really, if the schools truly divide people, maybe it takes 110% effort to make cross-college friendships work. I learned that one of the most important things in a university is networking. And I’m not saying that we use one another, but since we’re all connected through CC, why not keep up the communication while we’re there?</p>
<p>Yes, the studying atmosphere is intense. Yes, we’re all geeks at heart. And yes, previous classes have probably said the same things we’re discussing right now. But as much as I hate to compare us to other UCs, if they’re able to balance out a good social rep AND still be an elite university, so can UCSD. Being in La Jolla is hardly an excuse, in my opinion, no matter what the other classes say. “It is what you make of it”–well, let’s make more than they did.</p>
