<p>I remember back in 1979, when I applied, I got that same reaction.</p>
<p>“Are you really going to Suntan U?”<br>
“You certainly are considering one of the more social schools in the country,” commented my grade 11 English teacher.</p>
<p>I know that back in the 1960’s and 1970’s it really was a party school, but the “party” was pretty easy to avoid by the time I got there. My friends and I would study all day on Sunday and were serious about academics Monday-Wednesday. We were generally more relaxed on Thursday and Friday Saturday was for football games. </p>
<p>Thursday evening was not always available for fun if there was a test on the horizon. Of course, this schedule was out the window for finals.</p>
<p>I didn’t think that was such a party lifestyle back then- but I would never be able to keep up now. :)</p>
