I know a little bit about the history of the toga party in American universities, but does anyone know how popular they are these days? Is it mostly just a relic of the 1960's and 70's?

They're still definitely around. This one night back when I was living in California I was hanging out drinking with some people at Long Beach State and a few of them were in togas because they were planning to go to some toga party, but I don't think they ever made it there...so anyway yeah I don't think they're as popular as they used to be but they do exist and I'm sure almost every university has them every once in a while.

I have no idea. But every time someone says Toga Party, I always think Animal House and become quite disturbed.

Animal House is based on real events at SIUC, you know.

That's a good fact for me to know, Sab. Thanks.

Yep, my dad mentioned that when we watched it. I think that made it even more odd, LOL.

AH, the heritage my (former) school graces the world with. Going there has given me the gift of carrying on that tradition!

I've never heard of it!

Southern Illinois University-Carbondale. what what!

I'm going to one tomorrow night. If you want I can tell you what it's like.

TOGA! TOGA! TOGA!!!!


Dont forget to wrap around, well, you know where...
