Colgate University Top Questions

What is the stereotype of students at Colgate University?

Cody

Everyone likes to claim that Colgate is a fratty school full of big partiers who drink in excess because it's so cold that there's nothing else to do.

Mark

The stereotypical Colgate student is white, from Jersey, Long Island, or NYC, is rich, likes to get hammered whenever possible, has kind of a casual preppy style (lots of north face fleeces) and likes to get hammered whenever they can.

Charlie

There's a negative stereotype that Colgate students are snobs clad entirely in J. Crew. Or that everyone is really well off. There's also the stereotype that everyone is really friendly, athletic and motivated.
