Smart Academia Apathetic to tangible issues Party School

Well, there are a ton of Long Islanders and a ton of Asians...

Binghamton has a lot of cliques. especially racial cliques. the Asians have nice clothes and drive nice cars.

Students- BU is known for having ALOT of Jewish and Asian students. Many Asian students are foreign, and they tend to throw off the curves in large classes (annoying.) Hinman Community is where most Asian students live. The Jewish students generally fall in to 2 categories. There are the really religious ones, and the really annoying ones. There are ALOT of long island kids, and most of the annoying Jewish kids are from Long Island. The jewish girls are really jappy, and they all tend to be in greek life. ALthough there are about 14000 undergrads, I joke that I am one of 10 blondes in the whole school. I personally can't stand them or greek life. Its basically a bunch of people who were not "cool" in high school (and nor was I) and now that they joined a frat or sorority they think they run everything and make everyone else crazy. I am from long island and they give us a bad name. Your best bet for finding kids who are not asian or jewish (jappy ones) is to live in College in the Woods. Newing is full of jewish kids who will join greek life. Overall, the student population is very diverse. Binghamton- Intro level classes tend to be very large, and science professors usually don't speak very good english. It can be hard to do well if you are not self motivated, because attendance is not required in lectures. On the weekends, people usually go down town to a strip of about 10 bars, and there are different types of bars for different personalities. The sports teams are not too great, and the basketball games are the only ones people go to, even though they are not too good. Again, BU is known for its asians and jewish kids, and other than that I dont see it as having any particular reputation. It is the "Ivy League" of SUNY schools, so you will be well prepared when you graduate and find it fairly easy to get a job. You may be able to find more stereotypes at urbandictionary.com

About Binghamton University, many people believe the classes are easy because this is a public school. A lot of my friends also think this is a party school and that everyone does good in their classes because the materials taught here are easier than the materials taught in Colgate and Williams (because they are private schools).

school that students go to because it is cheap.

We are a bunch of hippies and that everyone studies all the time

Stereotypes about Binghamton and its students? For one, it's dreary, depressing and boring. The only way to have a good time is to go out drinking and partying. Two, Binghamton students don't have the same chances out there in the real world as students who go to other more prestigious schools. That a diploma from a school like that would help secure a better more fulfilling future.

There is nothing to do in Bingahmton the town, everyone is from Long Island/ New York City area, or are Jewish, Asian, or from another country, academics are impossible.

A few stereotypes concerning Binghamton and the students is that there is a considerable amount of people from Long Island and New York City, most of whom are Jewish. Beyond this, there are stereotypes about many of the residential communities on campus. For instance, Newing Community is known for having a high population of people involved in Greek Life and also people who are very materialistic. Dickinson Community is known for having people who are generally less social and are somewhat "geeky". College in the Woods Community, where I live is known to be the most social while also being renowned for being a place where many people come to smoke drugs and drink alcohol.
