Would a non-drinking girl (also not interested in sororities) be comfortable with the social scene at Wake Forest? She visited Sewanee and was rather taken aback by the very heavy partying going on that weekend (at an Episcopal school, no less <g>). The Princeton Review book warns of a heavy party scene at Wake but we have found some of their descriptions of other schools were exaggerated in that regard.</g>

Are there plenty of “dry” activities that are well-attended? Alcohol-free dorms? She loves everything else she hears about Wake Forest. Any insights would be very much appreciated.

My dad lived in Winston-Salem briefly and said the movie theater and mall are very nice, one good option for getting off campus for a while at least. :)
