Geeks

The stereotype of the students of SUNY College at Buffalo is that they are very energetic, and outgoing. They like to challenge many goals, not only on an academic level but in social life as well such as making friends even. The school holds many events that is operated and run by, not the school, but the students themselves. It's not only SUNY Buffalo that has jocks, frat kids and stoners; every school has them. I view this not as a deterioration of the school image but builds up the diversity of the people you can meet.

It can vary from major to major. For example, as a mechanical and aerospace engineering double major, I'm stereotyped as a bit of a geek, who spends a lot of time in the library, and as somebody who likes to show off how much they've learned. English majors are stereotyped as lazy, somewhat unproductive, and a bit out-of-the-loop when it comes to real-world usability of an english degree. Arts majors are usually associated with being hippies, and in some cases, eccentric. When all is said and done, there are a lot of geeks at UB, occasionally peppered with social butterflies, jocks, and even a few frat kids here and there.
