Gettysburg College

Small liberal arts school in the south central pa, about an hour and a half from washington or baltimore. Gettysburg's academic programs can be either very challenging or very easy. For example, the typical gettysburg management major ( the schools watered down version of business) can go out 7 nights a week and still manage to get As and Bs. Meanwhile, students with majors within the science department are rarely seen out on days other than friday or saturday due to very demanding coursework and slightly biased liberal arts core requirements. Also, Gettysburg College has a huge emphasis on Greek Life. Almost all upperclassmen are somehow involved, which is advantageous because theres not much else to do during the weekend otherwise. Meanwhile, the school waters down the percent of greek students to incoming students, not mentioning that freshman arent allowed to rush. so thats about 600-700 kids that arent in greek life because they arent allowed to be. The majority of Gettysburg students are white upper-middle to upper class students. Don't be surprised to see a lot of pastels, popped collars, lilly pulitzer, and loafers on both men and women. Also, most students are conservative; however, the presence of liberals on this campus has been growing in the past years. Overall, Gettysburg is an Ok place to go. Most importantly a degree from Gettysburg looks great regardless of who you are. Just expect to fit the image

Sea Isle City, NJ

Easily the best town out of the southern shore points. From the younger crowd at 40th and Landis to the families down at the Inlet, sea isle offers something for everyone. The beach is beautiful and large enough for large groups and recreational activities, not to mention you'll never find sea isle as crowded as ocean city or wildwood, nor is it as boring and pretentious as avalon or stone harbor. The boardwalk isn't cluttered with run down stores or cheap amusements, nor will someone try to call you in for a noise violation at 9pm on memorial day weekend. In fact, your neighbors will probably try and join in on the party. Also, sea isle offers the best party and bar scene of all the shores. The houses from 30th-50th street are mostly inhabited by an array of young men and women in their early to late 20s. The few blocks from 43rd to 38th crossing with Landis and Pleasure are lined with bars and 24 hour eateries, giving the college age people the run of the place all throughout the night. Towards either end of the island, the atmosphere is more quiet and family oriented, giving them independence from the young crowd around the bars.

Sea Isle City, NJ is definitely the best place in south jersey: The inventors of the famous No Shower Happy Hour from 4-8 at the ODs every saturday during summer
