ohhhh, I don't know about that.  I lived in a coed dorm -- 
alternating male and female floors.  I think the closer availability
of the desireable sex promoted more social events....that is, we
didn't have to trek "over to see the girls".  They were just a flight
up the stairs.  And about the massive drinking, boy-o-boy some of
the women (that's right women, they know how to take care of themselves)
know how to drink.  The only situation that I can imagine with less
partying was/is on fraternity row... and you can't beat that.  Of 
course, the sensible thing to do was take a girl out in order to
get away from too much of this, but this was a great way to meat women;
But then again, I didn't start serious dating until my third year 
anyway, but it still was a great way to meet friends of both sexes.
Actually, its really good because you get to know very well the
idiosyncrasies (sp?) of the varios females, before you start dating
them.  That is, you find out who are phonies and who are the 
genuine .... whatevers.  Enough said.
