<p>My son is a senior bioengineering major. He tells me partying is there if you want it, but can be easily avoided and your energies directed in other directions. He rarely drinks and has never felt pressure to drink or felt left out because he is not a heavy drinker. </p>
<p>He loves Lehigh and gets kinda annoyed when these rankings come out as it really portrays the school in a bad light and it has not been his experience at all. </p>
<p>There is a small percentage who seem to do nothing but party, most I would say party on weekends when they can - but are pretty serious about their grades, so… play hard, work hard kind of thing.</p>
<p>Then there are those, like my son, who don’t really party but prefer to hang with friends, go to concerts, sporting events etc… socialize in their apartments, but stay off the “hill”.</p>
