I've noticed that too with non-trads. They are also a lot more into the class discussions, on average. My own conclusions from these observations is just that non-trad people aren't in college for the social aspects, as well as for the educational aspects. Perhaps that's because most of them already have been busy creating an outside life for themselves before coming to college, whereas traditional students are kind of starting out their entire lives from scratch when they come to college, in certain ways.
I guess the OP here is kind of the exception since she wants to be focused on things in college besides her classes.
