Somewhat, there are a lot of girls and most of them seem/act like they are very privilaged. JMU is trying to broden its demographics, but it often seems as if we only have caucasian students.

Yes and no. They apply to some people, but not others.

JMU is not just a big party school. Yes, like any other college there are parties on the weekends; however, there is so much more to do than just party. Students attend plays and musical performances for free and there is a free student lounge called Taylor Down Under where students can get coffee, hand out, and listen to live music or poetry. Students also attend sporting events for free and there is a movie theater on campus that only costs 2.00. There is so much more to do than just go out and party.

These stereotypes are not accurate at all. 1.) Even though the weekends do offer a plethora of places to binge drink and party there is plenty of other things to do. For instance, campus plans many activities and events on the weekends such as concerts, film showings at the movie theatre on campus, fundraisers, speakers etc. this is a great way not only to maybe stay out of trouble but also to extend friendships across the extremely friendly student body.

They are not accurate.
