What are some stereotypes about Haverford students?

That most are socially awkward and snobby intellectuals.

Are the stereotypes accurate?

There are alot of socially awkward people but a large enough group of fun outgoing people and very few people who are snobby about their intelligence.

Haverford: The Big Picture

The Honor Code is great most people respect it facillitating a comfrotable and somewhat carefree enviroment to study and socialize in. You always meet great new interestigng people you wouldn't otherwise meet in other situations. The professors and classes are great but Bryn Mawr professors are mean and unhelpful for the most part.

Haverford Academic Life

It is rigurous and alot of work, most classes are engaging and small that helps learn in a more concentrated environment but there is alot of pressure and hard work and you well spend a many sleepless nights on papers, tests, problems sets and homework.

Haverford's Student Body

Most people are interesting, there is not very diverse student body, most people are from the east coast around Philadelphia, students like to volunteer, people dress very laid back in athletic clothes are whatever they found at the top of their laundry pile, people aren't very politically active but are active in issues about awareness and the enviroment.

Haverford Student Activities + Social Life

there's FAB (ford's against boredom) which organizes fun sober events and brings movies on campus. No fraternities and Sororities on campus and no football team. Limited but fun social circles for people who want to go out and drink and dance, themed parties and student controlled alcohol policy makes it great for drinking with your frineds and throwing parties on campus without worrying about police.

In Closing ...

What's the worst thing about Haverford?
Interaction and sharing classes with Bryn Mawr

What's the best thing about Haverford?
the Honor Code and great professorial relationships
