<p>As many other posters on the Lehigh threads have expressed, Lehigh is a party school if you want it to be. It’s really up to the student what kind of experience they want to have. Yes, there are a lot of parties going on off campus and it’s very easy to go to parties and go out a lot, but if you don’t want to go out, there’s plenty of people who don’t go out regularly, or at all. Lehigh holds many events on weekend for people to do from concerts to speakers, dances etc. The CHOICE housing is another great option. While some many thing that CHOICE is for people who don’t drink or go out at all, it’s really housing for people who may go out (or may not), but don’t want the rowdiness of drunken or high college students brought back to the dorm. I know a few people in choice and they are a very close knit group and love choice a lot!
I personally chose not to go greek in January when sorority recruitment took place and even though I’m not in a sorority, I still go out on the weekends with my friends who are in houses.
The social scene Lehigh is what you make of it!</p>
