<p>Yes we do go downtown on thursday nights and nashville is amazing i love it. However, the truth of the matter is, on friday and saturday nights, your friends will be going to frat parties. I personally wish it were different, but it’s not. Vanderbilt is very focused on greek life. Of course there are people that don’t go and find other things to do, but going downtown as a freshman…first of all, you can’t get in anywhere downtown or into any bars and clubs unless its a frat sponsored one, and second, if it’s not frat sponsored, you need to be 21. I’m sorry if you don’t like what i’m telling you but it’s true.</p>
