Something 33girl said struck me as being right on target:
"I think your daughter will find there's less peer pressure to do anything (sex, drinking, whatever) than there was in high school."
I'm not sure which "OSU" your screen name stands for (Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon), but I grew up in Columbus where we pretty much graduated socially from Middle School (Junior High at that time) to college -- attending parties, bars, street dances, etc. on the Ohio State Campus. There was a huge amount of peer pressure from high school friends to do "college" things instead of "high school" ones.
I think 33 is right. Socially, college was much more relaxed, at least for me, and I never expected to be in a fraternity. I just met a bunch of guys I really liked and got along with, and the rest, as they say, is history.
