Would you deem Frostburg State University a party school? There are many people who are aware that FSU is a dry campus and that Dr. Jonathan Gibralter, the university president, is highly supportive of enforcing policies that prevent student drinking. FSU is also a small town that has a surplus of bars for students to choose from, as well a few well placed liquor stores. The campus newspaper frequently has police reports of underage drinking, or other students that were caught doing something alcohol related; does this mean FSU is a party school?
Students such as junior Brad Petefish think that FSU is actually “tame compared to other campuses.”
Jonathan Smith, an undecided sophomore, states “I live off campus, but I’ve seen the parties up and down the streets.” “They are pretty loud…though nothing out of the ordinary for college students.”
Another response came in the form of a puzzled look from Carrie Potavine. “I really don’t know?” Carrie, a local from Lavale, MD, “I mean I’ve never really lived on campus, but I hear about parties.” “I would have to say FSU is actually not a party school at all; I’ve never heard anything in the news about it.”
While FSU may be a short distance away from a notorious party school such as WVU, it is seems that this small university in the Maryland mountains has managed to keep its party life out of the lime light and away from the influences of other universities.
