there's a difference between going to parties to have fun with your sisters/brothers, and going to try and hook up with the opposite sex. It depends on your campus too - mine had (has) a fair number of people who are 25 and still in undergrad due to scheduling/$$ issues. So it's not too weird. If it was a campus where everyone got out in 4 years, I can see why students would be squicked out.
I think it is somewhat reactive too - from alums who say things like "I'm over all that." The fact is when you're out in the world with a 40 hour wk job/spouse/kids all of the above, as much as you might want to go back and do some of that stuff, you can't. So it's easier to run it down. I chuckle at some of the sisters who get married and act like they are above all that silly college stuff now. When they get divorced they are the first ones running back to homecoming and going nuts.
