These are always very well done, great mashups.

Yep that sounds like the general opinion i've heard from most Frosh I talked to last year.

House parties don't get broken up here very often unless there are multiple noise complaints so it sucks that they are going after the off campus stuff too.

I know I felt the same way going into first year, that college was going to be full of all these american pie-esque parties and the whole thing would be a crazy free for all with no authority outside of class. While there have been a few of those they don't make of the majority of my nights out. Looking back those crazy house parties were fun but not very memorable (and not just because of the beer). The most memorable parties I've been too here are small house parties with just our close friend group. We all know each other and we just have a great time without dealing with all the drama of bars and huge frat parties. So I guess what I'm saying is that even though right now you may feel cheated out of the "university experience", give it a year or two and I bet you'll have a much different idea of what that means.

I'm studying Electrical Engineering, I'm taking a year off to do an internship at the moment but I'll be going back for my fourth year in September.

I am very doubtful of this. Of all the people I know who use instagram (granted not a huge sample size), most of them were up in arms about it for about 24 hours but didn't seem to care enough to stop posting pictures regularly.

I don't see how this is different than the bi-annual "new facebook" that swaths of peopl say they are going to quit over but then forget about in due time.

Did you listen to "Broke"? It's definitely the most catchy song off their first record (Smooth like stone on a beach)

Love this band. They come from my hometown and we used to go see them play community centers/shady downtown clubs back in high school. Real nice people and they put on a great live show if you ever have a chance to go see it.

Ah another Canadian here. I'm in my 3rd year at Queen's over in Kingston. The residences here are going through the same sort of thing after the Homecoming fiasco a few years ago (similar to Western St. Patties day riot last year). Do you feed like the crackdown is necessary or does it feel like they are treating everyone like children based on the actions of a few people?

I'm doing a degree in Electrical Engineering at Queen's University in Canada. Half-way through a year long internship placement then back for 8 months in september to finish up the degree. I've had a really positive experience so far, nice small city and a great community. It's going to be strange switching back to the student life after working for a year but I'm looking forward to having a bunch of money saved up from the job.

Just recently came here from the TheoryOfReddit post. So far it seems like a nice change, looking forward to getting more involved.
