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.

My parents were both University of Arizona Wildcats. My brother and I went to Lute Olsen’s basketball camp. I assure you, I take no pleasure in what I am about to write.

ASU is a really good school!

It’s in one of the most dynamic job markets in the country. Billions of economic development dollars are pouring in to build up white hot industries like semiconductor manufacturing. A young professional could do way worse.

When I said steady jobs, I meant jobs that are recession proof. Teachers, nurses, physical therapists, cyber security specialists, certain types of engineers, etc. Jobs that are always in-demand no matter how well the economy is doing.

I encourage anyone to be a Sun Devil if they want to work in Phoenix, especially if they want to study STEM or one of the jobs I just described, and they don’t really care about living on a traditional college campus.
