kevinf, the party scene in IV is pretty strong. If you’re of a mind to do so, you could pretty much party year 'round, and you would probably have more opportunity to do so at (or near) UCSB than many other schools. Of course, you would flunk out if you did. It’s probably true that there’s more social “acceptance” of a partier lifestyle at UCSB than at UCSD, for example. But it’s still very much up to the individual student. There’s a lot of serious academic activity at UCSB (on campus) if you’re motivated in that direction.
