Middlebury College Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at Middlebury College accurate?

Alex

well, we definately have some of these folks, but there's a lot more going on behind the scenes. well-rounded is quickly going out the window in favor of extreme academic types.

Emmerson

For some people they are but it's not the majority.

Harper

Yes, but each in their own way. We all coexist.

frances

yep!

Lisa

WE ARE EVERYTHING!

Tom

Pretty much. But there is a great contingent of international students.

Jacob

Absolutely not.

Joanna

Very accurate for a portion of the student body, but overlooks other types of people on campus. For example, I feel like my experience at Middlebury wasn't at "that" Middlebury (i.e. my friends were not in social houses, etc)

Nora

For the most part. There's a few in betweens but it's generally easy to classify people based on appearance.

Circa ten years ago, I think the old stereotype was right on, and there is a contingent of maybe 25{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the student body, the lacrosse players, hockey players and their bros who still fit that. On the other end, there is certainly a 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} dedicated hippy contingent. Everybody else doesn't fit those stereotypes. Middlebury is in a state of flux. In a few more years the Old Stereortype won't fit at all.
