Well there is a large number of environmentalists here at UC Davis, otherwise known as "hippies". I wouldn't say the majority of the student population are "hippies" but there are a good amount of these students who are very passionate about peace and global conservation.
You can also say that UC Davis, like many of the UC schools in California, has somewhat of an "Asian Invasion" population. Some may think these Asians are not Americanized, but the majority of the Asian students here grew up in the States and are really tied with the American culture.
There are a few stoners and jocks, but you can't really pick them out when you see the students on campus. We're all pretty much one big happy group of Aggies.
UC Davis has a lot of Frats and Sororities and I guess you can say UC Davis "frat kids" know how to party, but they are also studious bunch of people. I myself am not a frat member, but I have a good number of friends that are and they enjoy it.
Basically, UC Davis is a diverse university. We have all the stereotypes you can think of. But hey, every college has some stereotype right?

Davis students are seen as VERY school spirited; ask them about their school and they will say nothing but good things (except maybe regarding the weather). Everyone in Davis rides a bike, and they are seen as active, laid back, and friendly.
Tristan
The students and all hippies and Davis only has a lot of cows and not much else.
Robyn
Some stereotypes include: great percentage of asian students, classes are stressful, people that attend Davis are uptight and all about getting the best grades and don't like to party, and that everyone is there for agriculture and that we all like farms/cows.

I do not pay attention to the overall rumor mill about UC Davis or the student body. Although I should since I am a sociologist in training.
I guess I should say that one overall stereotype is that UC Davis has a high proportion of East Asian students.
Dylan
That the frats and sorrorities are all intense party-ers
That everyone's a farmer and a hick
That the girls are hot and the guys not so much
It smells like cows
KJ
Hippies, somewhat conservative.
Blake
Being a research school, I thought that a lot of these students would be stuck inside studying. But then there's also the stereotype that there's crazy parties...being so close to Berkeley. Then there's the stereotype that there's a lot of Chinese people...
