I attended the GSLIS (as it was called then) at UT from 1987 to 1989, and I lived on campus.  UT was a bit of a party school at that time, at least for undergraduates.  There was also a large population of "Greeks" (fraternities and sororities), which dominated the undergraduate culture.

Hmmm. I seem to remember that U Tenn was classed as a "party school" before it had a lib school. Looks like at least some slacker schools are likely to be land grant schools. Maybe that's what makes them slackers? Or maybe it's football?
