Shes not normal.
Fraternity at Smaller University (18k people)
Wake up still shitfaced, partied because of last nights results. Make it to the only class for the day at 12:30. Play frisbee or volleyball. Go to that stupid Greekman thing for KD. Be bored, leave early. Begin drinking with the guys casually. Pass out at three/four. Rinse, wash, repeat.
That's all I had to do for the day. Thursday will certainly be a different day.

Which is more common? I'd say it's a combination of both. It really depends on the individual. There are those who spend the whole time partying and those who don't even drink...and everything in between.

No one should take TV/movies so seriously. While there may be some truth in there, remember that they are meant to entertain. As for college/greek life in the U.S., everyone's experience is different and will depend on many things such as the campus culture, the size of the university, whether the university is private or public, etc. As for greek life, each organization is different and the many chapters at different colleges are different. One chapter at one school might be full of book worms and another chapter at another school might be more into partying. It's different everywhere you go so please don't rely heavily on stereotypes and hearsay.
Overall, the U.S. is full of great universities and students work hard to graduate.

There are as many different answers as there are universities and students. I know that sounds like a cheeseball answer, but it really is the truth.

Best answer yet, gah you guys all seem to have such a better ''life experience'' with uni than we do over here, for a start, nobody lives on campus, theres sometimes uni housing up the road or in the district, but never ''ON campus''
