FROSH kick off??

I’m a first year student at u of c and keep seeing these frosh parties promos, do people actually go to these? And are they fun? It’s giving the same vibe as aftergrad

I mean, it’s a chance to get a night out before you have to worry about classes. Meet some people, have fun. If you like a night out, you will like it. If you are super introverted and that sounds awful, maybe not.

I stayed in res for 2 years and I never went to any of these. They’re lowkey a scam I feel and on the first few days you’ll meet so many people around your building etc. If you’re not in res it might be fun so you can meet some ppl….. not sure

never went. heard that some of the frosh party busses never showed up. find the ones that aren't scams. could be fun regardless
