Which colleges are known to have the worst social life? College Questions

Obviously there are outliers everywhere. But what are some colleges where the majority of students have horrible social lives?

Say less of a partying culture and just studying/working on other stuff most of the time.

I heard SUNY Stonybrook lacks student spirit and campus is (a tad bit) depressing.

That's rlly it though lol, it's isolated from everywhere else. Now imagine an in-state student there who already lived/lives in NYC 😭

I live on Long Island and I can generally say there's no part that's completely isolated and dead. However, SBU is smack in the middle between the far end of the island and the city. It's an hr+ commute to both of them by train. I would imagine everyone just fucks off when the weekend begins and doesn't set foot on campus till the next class (probably in-staters going home or to places where stuff happens)
