Syracuse University Top Questions

When I first moved to Syracuse from the South I was informed about the stereotypes of the coined term the "JAPS" and at the time I thought it meant just alot of Asians, but little did i know it stood for Jewish American Princess. Girls who were spoiled by their parents and had more $ than God, I heard the campus was diverse but those diverse clicks usually were tight knit. After attending for two years and on the brink of my junior year I quickly erased the image I had in my head of SU and saw the competitive witty kids that i go to school with. Sure..every car in the parking lot is a BMW, Lexus, or Range Rover... but that was just something to get used to. The School did an amazing job of playing it's cards right and offered numerous organizations to fit students needs.

Syracuse has a lot of rich students.

There is a large Jewish population, and a large population from the tri-state area of the north east (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut).

1. It's cold... very, very cold. 2. The whole campus is greek. 3. Syracuse girls wear Ugg boots, spandex tights, and have huge handbags

The most prevalent stereotype among Syracuse students would have to be that they are either: Jewish, rich, or both. For the most part, students are seen wearing they're designer handbags, shoes (uggs), and shades. The students are snobby, spoiled, and clueless.

Syracuse, NY is the coldest college city to ever go to. Syracuse University is full of daddy's little girls and momma's boys that have everything given to them. You can't go to Syracuse University unless you have a million dollars. Syracuse University is basketball, football and nothing else.

Newhouse kids are all snobs, VPA (particularly drama students) are gay (if they are mail) and promiscuous/experimental, the Engineerings school is full of Asians and Indians, all the hot guys are in Whitman, all the minority groups stick together, etc. etc.

That it's a generally unintelligent group of partiers and there are few good professors.
