I was in a frat at my school prior to transferring to ND and the dorms are nothing like frats. yes, you live in a building with whole bunch of people who are the same sex, but that is pretty much it. you have more privacy than living in a frat house and there will be plenty of people like you who do not want to drink…in a frat, drinking is forced and expected; in the dorms, it is neither forced nor expected… for the most part, most of the people i lived with didnt drink that much - only on the weekends. People still understand they are at ND and understand what is expected of them to do well in their classes; I have met only one person here who has put drinking before studies and he dropped out
