If you think there is nothing to do besides drink at Lafayette, within an hour of NYC, then you will find absolutely nothing to do but drink on Notre Dame’s campus.

Join a club! TAke up a sport. Become a poet. If drinking is actually the problem with Lafayette and not some other issue, look harder for companions of like mind. I’ve been to Lafayette and ND - you don’t have to be a frat rat at LC if you don’t want to be. However, if you live on campus at ND, the loneranger is right - dorms there do function as frats.

Is drinking really the problem? If it is and you really want to transfer, perhaps you might want to consider Grove City, Calvin, Brigham Young, Bob Jones… lots of other schools where alcohol is not pervasive on campus.
