Quinnipiac University Top Questions

What is the stereotype of students at your school?

jess

Uggs. Northfaces. Leggings. And shirts that are converted into very short dresses. The biggest stereotype is that we all look the same. The other stereotype I think would be that we're a mostly white campus.

Marissa

Preppy, stuck up, cliquey

Ashley

Rich, Preppy, stuck-up, fake tan with blonde hair

Matthew

That they are rich, Abercrombie wearing, white, upper class, unintellectual, ignorant, racist, snobs who make a direct effort to go drinking at Toad's (a bar in New Haven) and don't give a flying fuck about the world around them (as evident by our standing as the second most politically apathetic college in the nation).

Jesse

Rich kids, too much liberal influence, mostly white

Bobby

The stereotypes at Quinnipiac are solely due to the area it's in--since it's not too far from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Mass most of the students are from those areas. There are the usual Long Islanders that flash their money with tacky brands, guido/guidette look of uber tan skin, and loud accents. There are the Jersey kids who brag about their sports teams and get in your face for no reason. There are the Mass-holes who are probably the nicest kids on campus, Rhode Islanders included and they're population is growing here. There are the random foreigners and the hot kids who appeared randomly from some no-where state or country and came here solely for sports...
