Rider University Top Questions

There really are not any major stereotypes about Rider or Rider students. After the incident in Greek life, many prospect students think that the Greeks on campus are very rowdy and all they do is party. It's also another misconception that all Rider students are involved in drinking or in Greek Life.

That all Rider students are business majors from New Jersey.

Rich white people Not really smart Back up school

I think some stereotypes about Rider is the area in which it is in. Lawrenceville, New Jersey is close to Trenton which some may think is not such a great area. My campus is located in Princeton which is roughly twenty minutes away from the Lawrenceville campus, but I can say that everytime I've been on that campus, I've felt at home just as much on my campus.

That it is a suitcase school. That everyone is from New Jersey.

Rider is a suitcase school and it's not really fun anymore since the DeVercelly incident.

Suitcase school

Stereotypes about Rider students would be that it is a "money" student body that is very Greek. I would have to agree with this! When you see kids driving around in cars that are nicer than most parents or even facualty, there's something wrong with that. Also there is a very high emphasis on Greek life (while this may change in the future due to recent administration changes), this creates an environment that is very cliquey.

People think Rider is all parties and hot rich kids. A lot of people feel that Rider is a suitcase school.
