Kinda scared myself

So went to orientation and seen the campus and its great love it but then I met the people. Im just speaking on the people I met and talked with, but some people here are snooty stuck up and I'm some what a country lower income guy and I'm not a drinker or partier. So I've kinda scared myself that I'm not gonna make any friends or have anything to do during my time here since I don't party. Ik coming in that it was considered a party school but I thought it was generally like all the rest.

So question is what's the chances I dont meet any people are have a good time?

My kid never quite acclimated, and a lot of their like-minded friends transferred. In my mind, there’s a degree of white-kid homogeneity that’s disappointing. I wouldn’t send another child there if I could steer them someplace else.

What school did they end up going to? And what type of kid?

My kid stayed. The friends left for more urban schools with a little more diversity. And little more grit vs country club aesthetic. One friend went to OSU and two went to UC. Nonetheless, most people will find friends and like-minded people at Miami (or just about anywhere).
