That everyone is a major stoner, that everyone is a dirty hippie, that everyone is a preening hipster, that nobody is good at math and science and those programs are complete jokes, that there are no Republicans, that everyone is somewhere to the left of Che Guevara, that nobody goes on to a successful career.
Less academic than Oberlin and Wesleyan.
Bard students are stereotyped as being hipsters, primarily white upper middle class kids.
We're that clove-smoking little hippie school that's slowly becoming more sharp and well-rounded ... as the school broadens its horizons to diversity and focuses more on thorough education.
Druggies, hippies, hipsters, smokers, alternative views, liberal, artsy, flower children, etc.
I think we're in the top few on the Princeton Review for clove-smoking, birk wearing hippies. Additionally, I've heard rumors about the kinds of drug use at Bard, cliques, hipsters, the dull campus life on account of the fact that we live in the middle of the woods . . . Mostly, people just haven't heard of Bard. If they have, it's because of Leon Botstein and the Gehry building.
Bard is assumed to be rife with overly artistic and elitist undergraduates who are amply supported by their parents' money and/or trust funds. There is thought to be a very good likelihood that any person you meet from Bard will be a quote-unquote hipster. The school's population is thought to be composed mainly of New York and Los Angeles residents who have converged at the rural and isolated campus for its proximity to Manhattan and the presence of like-minded individuals. Many prospective applicants assume a high percentage of gay or queer students as well as widespread left-wing political involvement.
The Bard student is typically hyper sensitive to stereotypes and tries not to fall into any one category but one stereotype that students seem to gravitate towards is that of the self hating, Jewish anti-zionist. Another might be the introverted type that smokes too much, makes sarcastic comments as a way to avoid actual conversation and invariably winds up denouncing the United States' imperialist agenda, regardless of discussionary relevence.
There's an idea that we're all a bunch of aloof hipsters.
they're smart, motivated, and politically conscious
1. "Everyone does lots of drugs." 2. "It's super clique-y." 3. "They're all hipsters." 4. "It's a rich school."
that they are artsy, creative, and hip, all of them smoke
Bard students are radical hyper-intellectual philosophers/artists who are too hip for their own good and can frequently be found dragging on cigarettes in ironic tshirts and skin tight jeans, discussing Hegel with their equally hip friends who are majoring in Studio Arts, Political Studies, Photography, Literature, and Anthropology, the "only" majors at Bard.
That we're pathetic when it comes to athletics, that we're big on drugs and parties, most people think of us as the more artsy cousin of our neighbors, Vassar, and that we're extremely liberal.
Bard students are often self-stereotyped as socially awkward, intelligent kids who smoke a lot of cigarettes. Some are often referred to as "hipsters," most claim to hate "hipsters," many like experimental music, and many are very shy. I think that they are stereotyped as drug-addicted "weirdos" or super hip kids depending on where you're from: while I know that many kids from LA and New York City thought of Bard kids as very hip, sophisticated art snobs, the impression given to me, living in the suburbs of New Jersey, was that the kids here are drug-addicted "weirdos."
That we are all pot smoking hippies
We are incredibly pretentious liberal hipster druggies, albeit total geniuses.
The students are artsy, crazy, creepy, pretty much all the creative types mashed together. And there sure are hipsters. Everyone's a pothead.
Many people believe Bard is full of hipster scum and fashionistas.
Stereotypes are that Bard is a very big pot-smoking school full of pretentious artsy students and weirdos.
Bard is thought to be a school full of hipsters and hippies, where all the students do drugs and don't really work too hard.
Many people think that Bard is a stoner school and that most students are hippies and that couldn't be farther from the truth. Most students are artistically minded and liberal and are incredibly motivated.
All Bard kids are hipsters who sit in their room doing coke while listening to old Pavement B-Sides and counting their parents' money.
The few people who have heard of Bard, most of whom reside in the tri-state area, seem to perceive our student body as communist, pot-smoking, affluent, Caucasian, outcast artists. We're supposedly a blend of hipsters and hippies.
It's a hipster haven where the smart but too cool for school kids go. No jocks allowed. Self-motivated learners thrive here. It's where people go to get away from it all, really.
That bard students are very liberal, almost to the point where it is obscene.
Bard is thought of as an off-beat, but fairly respected liberal arts college with srong arts programs and a unique atmosphere.
