DORMS


Dorm parties are the most popular when one first enrolls in NYU. This is because dormitories are accessible to all students and already contain a high concentration of partygoers. Typically spread by word of mouth, music featured at NYU dorm parties is usually mainstream hip hop/rap or upbeat indie pop played at a low volume.

Hayden Hall often has the most intimate and exclusive-seeming parties. Third North seems to have the biggest and most consistent parties. Lafayette has the fraternity parties and brings in the highest ratio of upperclassmen to freshman.

Typical attendee: Freshman of any major who knows the host from the dorm or a required class. Male dorm partygoers are often seen wearing American Apparel hoodies and short-sleeved shirts, while females’ outfits can range from relaxed hoodie and jean combo to revealing lace tops and skin-tight skirts.

Typical drug of choice: 40 oz. bottles of Olde English 800.

    A Narcissist’s Love Letter

    When I say I’m in love with you, I mean I love the story I can tell to my next lover, about my ex-lover, about how beautiful things were, how intense, how storybook, what a couple we were, and how you gradually, inexplicably, painfully, bit by bit, disappeared.
