Hippie, "green," punk, "individual"
some are really liberal funky environmental lovers and some are intelligent decent folks that care about a good education and good things in the world.
that we're hippies, the birkenstock-wearing tree-hugging obnoxious type.
I have no idea, I am a foreigner.
We are tree-huggers
That everyone gets in and that the classes aren't that challenging.
they are all about computers
That they are stuck up and snobby
Everyone is in the Greek system. It rains all the time.
We are smart!
UW students come equipped with Northface Jackets, Nalgene bottles, and iPods. UW students are extremely liberal
I haven't herd any.
Asian
Tree hugging hippies, I guess.
It rains a lot.
It rains too much.
The highest profile group of students are the greek-going business admin types. Because they move in mass, they carry much weight at the university. Lower profile, but contributing much more to the academics are the science research, pre-med, computer science types. Unless you're in their program, though, you don't see them much. A smaller percentage of us--and I don't know what the hell we're doing here--are more hippie, organic, traveler, free thinker types.
That everyone wears North Face, that no one uses umbrellas, that the dorms suck, and that everyone is from in-state.
There are a lot stereotypes regarding Asians, really nerdy people and the greek system--especially regarding the rich population.
The wonderful thing about Washington is its weather. It contains all kinds of weather in the earth that everybody can enjoy, such as raining, snowing, sunny,...The weather in washington is variable, but the hard work of students is stable. On the street in any weekday, visitors are able to see washington students who are walking or waiting for the bus to get to school.
Everyone is really smart and we have a lot of asians as well as being very liberal.
1) That UW is a huge party school and that if you go here you are bound to party a lot. This isn't true. The school is big enough that you can find whatever you want. If you want to party, you can party every night for a month. If you don't want to party, there is very little pressure for you to party. 2) Because UW is a big school, it is assumed that everyone has tons of school pride. I am not into wearing tons of purple; I don't really understand fanatical school pride. There are tons of people that wear almost all purple, but most people don't care. Almost everyone has a Washington sweatshirt, but beyond that, i doesn't really matter.
UW students are very smart, because to get accepted, you have to be.
The state of Washington is a diverse state, as I know from having lived on both sides of the mountain. People from the Seattle area, because of its history with Microsoft and Boeing and other rich industries, have a reputation for being elitist coffee-drinkers and being extremely liberal politically. It's always raining, so the clothes people wear are designed more for the weather than for fashion. It also breeds environmental activists, hybrid-car drivers and hiking enthusiasts. Because of UW's size, the campus community is very diverse, but as a whole students tend to have more money and better high-school transcripts than other public schools in the state.
intelligent, very liberal, socialists, high grades, activists
I haven't come across any. I come a very diverse place and i think washington is pretty well rounded.
Pretentious, snobby, rich, white, into indie rock, super nice, too nice, passive-aggressive, techie-obsessed,
There are a lot of asians that go to school here and the school is huge in every respect.
We're a step up from all the other universities in the state in terms of education.
The University of Washington is too laid back. Students are too laid back to really care about achieving. The University of Washington satellite campuses are not as good as the Seattle campus.
They all wear Northface and drink out of Nalgenes. We're a bunch of pot head, hippies that love the Earth and protest everything. There are a lot of smart Asians that screw up the curve for the "not-as-smart" in really hard classes.
Washington and Seattle: that we hike a lot, wear polar fleece, drinks lots of coffee, listen to Indie music, and are pretty laidback. University of Washington students: that we're pretty smart, like to party, are relatively out doors-y, and all own ipods and have specific coffee brands we order.
Eastern Washington is more like the South, kind of ignorant and white trash and very dry and flat and colorless. However, once you get west, it is beautiful and green and Seattle is one of the most educated cities in the country. Washington students are interesting. Many undergrads have a "could care less attitude" but there are many who are very driven and are at school because they have something they want to learn. UW is better for graduate school.
Very liberal, and very competitive; lots of outdoor activities & active people
People assume we don't party. We are known for being far superior academically than WSU
Im not aware of any.
Northface wearing, nalgene drinking, hiking kids who play Apples to Apples all the time.
It rains all the time, we are crazy hippies,
Washington people are friendly, Washington students are friendly
Some stereotypes of Washington are that the school is made up of mostly students from Seattle, and that most students get depressed during the winterbecause of the weather.
A few of my friends at other colleges in Washington said that people believe that UW students return home every weekend, and the student population is predominantly Asian.
That students are pretentious, stuck up, and the rich kids (well according to our rival Washington State).
Everyone drinks coffee, people are super liberal and evironmentaly friendly, and it rains ALL THE TIME.
Very liberal, full of hippies, and the school itself is bland.
They are all Asian.
One stereotypes I've heard about UW is that we're a "smart school" and not very good at partying
There is a stereotype that all UW students fit the Pacific Northwest mold and carry their Nalgenes while wearing their Northfaces.
Washington students have a pretty good rep when it comes to acadamic standards. It seems to be considered where all the top students that remain in state head.
They are tree huggers who walk around in north faces, berkanstocks and have nalgenes.
The school is big, so there aren't many stereotypes about Washington students.
