What is life like on campus? Does a lot of social activity take place on campus? Are there a lot of campus activities? How is campus dining?

Life on Elon's campus is usually pretty vibrant.  Since many of the students are from areas not near to the Elon area most of the students stay on campus for the weekends. The school is pretty strict on alchohol so there is not as much partying going on in dorms however around campus there is quite a bit.  There is one event that everyone looks forward to in the spring.  Its called Festivus and involves a bunch of students gettting together to roast a pig and provide drinks to thousands of students who more or less play in a big mud pit.  As childish  as it sounds its pretty fun.  

The food on campus is Great! It really makes for a home like enviorment.  Every afternoon when you walk out of the business school you can smell the fresh cakes being baked and they are great when you go to the Collonades for dinner!! 

Overall campus life is pretty good!!
