University of New Hampshire-Main Campus Top Questions

I think sports teams and Greek life are very popular on campus. It is like a family away from home.

I do cheerleading at UNH and even though it isn't really considered a sport i get to meet a lot of great girls and feel like i am very involved with UNH atheltics.

Portsmouth and Boston are always fun to go to get off campus. I am in a sorority and am friends with most people in the Greek system.

I am in a sorority on campus so I feel that fraternities and sororities on this campus are very important. However, only about 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the campus is Greek. Athletic events at the school are extremely important too. The men's hockey games are always sold out and majority of the campus attends the football game or atleast goes to tailgate. Homecoming especially is a big event and when the hockey team plays Maine is a big event because they are our rival. I think how often people parties varies any where from 1 or 2 nights a week to about 4 or 5. Thursday and Saturday nights are probably the biggest nights to go out.

Greek organizations and sports team affiliations are the most popular student organizations to be a part of on the UNH campus. The social life, especially for those who are under 21, revolves mainly around off campus apartments/houses and fraternity houses. The dorm life is extremely social and people are very willing to leave their doors open for others to feely come into someone else's room while they are present.

I think the most popular groups/organizations on campus is Greek life - but I may think that just because I am involved and see how many students are involved as well. I am involved in Chi Omega and it has made my UNH experience that much better. Athletic events are very popular - football and hockey are the most popular. I am not sure about the dating scene because guys are idiots. I met my closest friends through Chi Omega and through classes. If I am awake at 2am on a Tuesday it is because I am just getting home from the bar. Several traditions and events happen each year through football and hockey games and activities involved in Greek life. People don't party as often as everyone may think, but maybe 2-3 nights a week for the average student at most. I believe fraternities/sororities are important for those who like to be involved in something, but I do have plenty of friends outside the Greek system. Last weekend I went to Scorps on Thursday and Portsmouth on Saturday. On a Saturday night that doesn't involve drinking I can stay in and watch a movie and get ice cream from Stats! Off campus I go shopping and other errands.

I am part of greek life on campus. Sororities are an awesome way to get involved, especially in a large school.

Athletics and Greek life are prominent on campus. I am in Alpha Phi Sorority and have made my closest friends through the organization. We have lots of fun together and participate in many community service activities along with social networking.

If you are a freshmen, you typically leave your door open so that you can meet people and become friends with your hallmates. However, if you have upperclassmen living on your floor, they typically do not care to meet freshmen and are kind of snotty. i don't think people "date" like they would in the olden days or if we were out of college. you basically go to a party, hoookup a couple of times, and then are considered to be dating. thats just how it is. you may go out here and there alone, but the majority is done when you go out at night with the rest of your friends. again, neither one in the relationship probably has any money to go out on a fancy night on the town. i think greek life is extremely important and i am proud that we seem to be cleaning up our image these days. its a shame that a lot of the social aspects have been taken away, but then again, those changes have been being made all around campus, no matter what group you are apart of.

Greek life on campus is pretty big. They offer a lot of campus activities to do over the weekend. My closest friends I met on my floor and through Chi Omega. The offer things at the mub on the weekends that don't involve drinking.
