Need more specifics about eating club stereotypes

I don’t really know what goes on to most of the clubs outside of thursday and saturday nights, because I haven’t really been to them (besides a few dinners during sophomore year), but I’ll tell you about Colonial.

There definitely are Colonial members who do not drink or drink hardly at all, and some people who very rarely go to Colonial to party. However, there are a lot of other things to do at Colonial - we sometimes go there to watch a movie, play pool, play DDR, or play boardgames (sometimes we even do this while there’s a party going on downstairs). There are study breaks every week with lots of food (sushi, chinese food, pizza, white castle, etc). There is a ton going on that doesn’t have to do with drinking. I’d imagine other clubs are similar.

The only issue with not drinking is that you have to be okay with the fact that a portion of the money you are paying is being spent on alcohol.

There are no club functions that are mandatory. It’s easier to be invited to events at other clubs if you have friends at those clubs. For example, I have a few close friends in Terrace, and so I will often go to Terrace events that are members + 1. The people is definitely the most important part.
