This Guide will teach you about the Rebel Social Group in The Sims 3 University Life. You don't join the Rebels, you naturally gain influence with them as your Sim performs certain tasks. Everything you do on this list contributes a little more influence, while unlocking various benefits for being a Rebel. Like the other two Social groups, if you reach level 8, you will unlock a social group trait slot for your Sim, allowing you to have an extra trait. With the academic trait slot for graduating University, you will have a total of seven traits on your Sim.
Rebels can stage protests, which each have varying degrees of difficulty. Some of these protests can cause global benefits, like increases in academic performance or higher likelihood of finding collectibles in town. You can set up protests to be peaceful or rowdy, and the police may come break it up if things get out of hand.
