pot smoking, really laid back, huge partiers, hippies and ski bums

Pearse

People believe that UVM is a party school that goes crazy for drugs and alcohol. Also it is believed that there are flocks of hippies roaming around campus, demonstrating against everything imaginable.

Hayley

Most people think that all UVM students are hippies, both in the way they look and act. Another common misconception is that UVM is made up of a diverse student body that is accepting of all different kinds of people and beliefs.

Jessie

UVM is split between the preppy kids from Connecticut and Massachusetts and the fake hippies who are most probably from Connecticut and Massachusetts. People are generally down to earth and friendly. There is a lot of drug use, especially pot.

Violet

Stoners, like to party, hippies, laid back, not that bright

Harper

The stereotypes are that UVM students are all hippies. Another assumption is that everyone is rich and their parents pay for college completely. Also, it is assumed that all students here smoke pot and party constantly. None of these stereotypes apply to me.

Brooke

If you think that coming to UVM everyone will be crunchy tree hugging hippies you will be surprised. If you think that UVM is going to be rich New Englanders you will also be surprised.

Rheanna

There has always been this environmentalist focus that has given us the rep of being hippies.

Hannah

Liberal stoner hippies with dirty feet hanging off the left side of the world.

Mel

The main stereotype about UVM is that we are a hippy, tree loving school. All we do is party, hug tree's and ski/snowboard.

Andrew

We're a bunch of stoners, lotta hippies

Emily

Comming into the school i assumed there would be alot of hippies and "dead heads". There are a good amount of people that you could classify as that but there are also alot of other groups that vary greatly. There are the jocks houses and some frats.

Lindsay

That we're all dirty hippies who smoke pot all day

George

Hippy pot smokers

1. UVM has a large number of hippies. 2. UVM is a big pot school. 3. UVM has many people from out of state.

Alex

There seems to be two ends of the spectrum on that one. From growing up in Vermont I've always heard the, "all the students who go to uvm are from out of state and their parents pay for everything" argument. Or the "they are all hippy liberals, or wanna be hippies that don't actaully get anything accomplished"

Kelly

Hippie, Stoners, flower children, green school. green is good. groovy uv.

Andy

UVM students in general are liberal to a fault. It's a school of radical hippies.

Dylan

Everyone smokes marijuana... everyone skis/snowboards... everyone is a hippie

Mel

That UVMers are big stoners, big partiers and the med students are stuffy.
