You can do anything from your dorm room in 2012. Take classes, pick up girls, talk to your friends, watch 200+ TV channels, play HD video games with your friends, watch Zips game on the computer, Ohio State on TV (every game is televised), ...it is an indoor society kids live in now-a-days.
It is beyond apathy. It's just tough to pry them out of their room and into the real world for anything.
