there's tons of hippies and whatnot up here, but what they dont tell u is that there are tons of jesus freaks too. ive been approached no less than 4 or 5 times this year in the viking by people asking me if i was christian or if i wanted to talk about god or how i thought the universe began. when i was in nash hall freshman year, i dont know if this is a deisgnated jesus hall or what, but i would say 60% of people i met are SUPER religious there, saying they'll pray for u and stuff and all that. plus there's a huge CORE or christian fellowship thing in the dorms there, so maybe that had something to do with it. so if you're into that sorta thing then western is definetly not a bad place for it as its reputation assumes so
