At the University of Delaware we have an excellent Engineering program, so many people relate the entire body of students to that. Thus common stereotypes include geeks or people that study in the library all the time. However, Greek Life is a big part of the social life here at UD, so then there are the stereotypical Frat bros and Sorority chics. There is a large percentage of Asian and Asian-American students that attend the University of Delaware, to bring back the stereotype of a geeky school. Most of our sports teams are Division II, so we have many Jocks as well. Both of my parents went here and they still associate UD with parties. My Dad was a big party guy but my Mom never left the art studio! There are many stereotypes but UD is a moderately-large University so there is a place for everyone!

UD used to be refered to as the "abercrombie" campus - supposedly all the students were rich and white.

UD is labeled an apathetic campus.
Caitlin
UD is a big party school, pretty much everyone drinks, and the students who go there are middle-class white kids from New York and New Jersey.
Alex
Apathetic, spoiled, party animals
Alex
That all the students are either from New Jersey or Long Island. That the school is apathetic to current events and politics.
Mike
That UD students are apathetic, preppy and has a geographically diverse student body. UD has been thought of an unofficial Ivy Leaguer and one of the most scenic campuses on the East Coast.
