There are several stereotypes placed on Emerson students. I have heard that we are all pretentious film snobs, we are all "hipsters" who try to be different for the sake of being different, and that we are stereotypical art school kids.

We're all hipsters in skinny jeans who don't like republicans or god. We support abortion, all our men are gay, and almost all girls will be fag-hags for someone at least once during their 4 years at Emerson. We don't care about sports, and we will not think you're extra cool if you play them. We're more of an Urban Outfitters type of school, rather than an American Eagle type.

A lot of people who observe Emerson from afar believe it to be full of all Hipsters, Gays and Weirdos. Although this stereotype is based is a great deal of truth, the reason the school attracts these types of people is that it is founded upon a great deal of tolerance and liberal-mindedness, making it a comfortable place for all types.
