Colgate University Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at Colgate University accurate?

Gene

Somewhat. It depends who you hang out with. The people I associate with are not.

Susan

Yes. Majority of the student body is JCrew, Ugg boot wearing students. Most people dress nice to class, but there are those who wear sweats and jeans daily. Lots and lots of kids from the east coast, some private some public. However, we are not a school of dentistry.

Gene

pretty much yes

Grant

I don't find any to be true except the diversity

Laura

Sometimes on the outside, but Colgate students come from many places, believe many things, and are ready to have fun with anyone and everyone

Mike

For the most part these stereotypes are true. Everyone studies really hard and then goes out at night and drinks hard.

Tyler

Often times, yes.

Andy

Absolutely. There is plenty of time to go to bed early on Sundays and Tuesdays; other than that, do your work until 9 and then get a beer in your hand. And no, I didn't know that they made that shade of green or red pants either.

Michael

yes

Chris

For the most part.
