Haverford students are awkward. Haverford is a shitty party school. Haverford students are really nice and friendly. People at Haverford are way too PC. Haverford students don't like talking about grades and go out of their way to avoid talking about them. Students are very down to earth, not pretentious at all. Students are very tolerant of others.

The normal Haverford male is 5'7, brilliant, and socially inept. The normal Haverford female is relatively the same hight, just as smart, although with more social intelligence than the male. The lacrosse and baseball teams have a bad rep on campus for being the partiers. However, when compared to the normal college male of a large university, they would be considered bookworms.

Anna

Haverford students are known for being hippy-ish, down-to-earth, liberal, and generally, pretty nice. I think we also have a reputation for being intellectual, quirky, nerdy, and socially awkward.

We work too hard, don't party and are socially awkward.

Paige

"Havermales" are typically short Jews from New Jersey. We have a reputation of being extremely politically correct.

Andrew

Supposedly, we're socially awkward and we have way too many extracurriculars. Our guys are supposed to be short and hairy and our girls more attractive.

I'm not entirely sure, but my best guess would be that we're a bunch of kind, intelligent people. Some more specific stereotypes are that all of the men are short, hairy, and named Dan and most of the people in general are unattractive.

Many people think that Haverford is an easier version of Swathmore and Haverford students are mostly people rejected from Swat.
