Stick it out or transfer in the fall?

They are a bit extreme about the drinking and attendance, but that probably goes back to their Baptist roots when they were religiously affiliated.

Why is this a negative? My daughter’s drinking and attendance weren’t monitored by the school but by her coach. I used to say a little Thank You prayer to the coach and the NCAA every day! I was thrilled that she wasn’t out at a party every night and that her coach called her out if she missed a class (she didn’t miss classes, but once there was a mix up and the coach thought she did).

Shouldn’t the cops be monitoring underage drinking? the kids might not like it but it is the law.

I think the question you, OP needs to explore is would your son be happier somewhere else? Would he make friends and ignore the Greeks and actually attend the club meetings for the clubs he joins? He has to put the effort into making a school work for him. Is a 2500 student school in CT that much different than one in Georgia? What do the students enjoy doing when not in class? How would he like that more?

If there is no difference in the cost to you, and he can find another school he likes more, why not have him look into a transfer? I wouldn’t do the work, I’d have my child do the research, but I don’t know why I’d care if my D found a school she liked more.
