Well our biggest rival is Yale, so basically they think that we're stupid, and they don't have very nice things to say about girls that attend QU.

mary

Melissa

Quinnipiac, as some people may or may not know, is this expensive private school in Connecticut. Who can afford to go here? The snobby white rich kids of course! Those kids who think that money is never an issue and have no problem flaunting it with their coach purses and umbrellas and Louis Vuiton everything. I also feel there is a divide between the health science majors and the business majors. Most people in the library and living in solitary confinement are the health science majors (me being one myself), wearing pretty much sweat pants and sweat shirts everyday. While the kids dressed so nicely who lounge around are the business majors. I might be a little bias but what can I say, I have a friend who is a business major and I'm pretty sure facebook doesn't count as "studying". Quinnipiac also has those girls who LOVE going out on thursday nights to the New Haven Clubs. Our shuttle for that night is called the "slut bus" and boy could they be more right. They walk down dorm road in a piece of fabric they call a dress, screaming out at the top of their lungs for attention. Dont they realize that people actually do homework and 8ams the next day??

Lorie

The girl to guy ratio is about 2:1. Girls wear north faces, with sweat pants tucked into their ugg boots. All the decent looking guys are guidos.

Jamie
