At Duke I feel like there are so many opportunities waiting for me. There's a very active student body involved in all sorts of activities like sports, community service, publications, etc. The campus feels alive.
As for the social atmosphere, it's pretty diverse. People have many different sides. For example, you can have intellectual conversations with the same person who plays beer pong with you every weekend. Bookworms aren't afraid to party hard, though sometimes people who like to party aren't receptive to academic talk outside of the classroom. If you don't like the party scene, you can definitely find your niche, though it may take a semester or even longer. read full review -
