In all honesty, yes. But really, Charleston gets pretty hot so no wonder girls dress a certain way. And depending on where you live and who your friends are, you will find tons of parties. C of C is a really friendly campus but sometimes you have to push to get stuff you need to get done.

Not everyone does, but a lot of the students do.
