The University of Illinois Urbana - Champaign

This school's mentality is work work work during the week and then get really messed up on weekends, via alcohol and drugs. Don't go too crazy on the new sense of liberty; once you get past the initial frenzy of partying, etc. etc. (that some people never get over), get serious because it's really easy to fall through the cracks in such a huge university. A college like this requires a lot of initiative, and apathy is definately a struggle to steer away from. Broken spirit also definately describes the majority of people that go here (regardless of whether or not they're gung ho for a time) because of the intense school atmosphere and the very active party scene here- not that the party scene here is great, either. For the most part, it's people getting messed up because there's not much else to do and it sure beats any other option.
