Bob
The common stereotypes are cowboys and hicks that can't afford any better.
Charles
Well among other stereotypes the main stereotype of students is cowboys and cowgirls, but I believe we also have a great mixture of other stereotypes as well. .
Jesse
That it is a really small dinky place with nothing to do but get drunk.
Molly
That UW students are just a bunch of dumb hicks and cowboys, and it goes the same for the state; people think that it is just empty plains with nothing to do filled with uneducated rednecks and cows.
NIcole
Some of the stereotypes are that there is no diversity at UW and that a lot of people are racist.
Nicole
That everyone is cowboys and that they like to drink and that Laramie is a horrible place to live so why go to college there
Eric
We are a bunch of drunken cowboys who like to party.
Danielle
Some of the stereotypes about Wyoming students from the east coast are that it's a bunch of hick town cowboys in the middle of no where. Not many people outside of the Wyoming area know of how good a school the University is and how good a deal the school is as well.
Meghan
The whole stereotypes that we are backwards hicks who marry each others cousins is completely false. That would be some state like Arkansas or Alabama. (He He He)
Rayce
The main stereotype about Wyoming is that Wyoming is a cold, ugly place, with nothing to do. As far as the students just that they are Copenhagen crewing, steer wrangling, cowboys.
Joe
Well first of all that we are all hicks.
Christey
We are all a bunch of hicks and all we do is drink.
Torry
They're all cowboy hicks and are dumb and lame...I guess. I mean, it IS Wyoming.
garret
that we are all cowboys and farmers or hicks. that wyoming doesnt have normal amenities such as, cable television, the internet, running water, paved roads, etc.
emmy
All the students are native.
It is a horrible palce to get a college education because it is in Wy, and a bunch of hicks come here
Jesse
Lot of hicks that are set in their ways, but a lot of really cool people too.
There is no problem with racism, as no students of race attend this college
Still a huge anti gay population in this town geared towards new thinking
Hunter
Wyoming is a totally rural and cowboy state. The students are only cowboys and cowgirls who ride horses to school and have to protect their home from galavanting hostiles.
Lauren
Very conservative, small town, set in our ways, family oriented, big skies, everyone is friendly.
Barbara
Stereotypes about Wyoming: everyone is a cowboy/girl, or that people are resistant to outsiders.
Bryan
We drink a lot. We are hicks.
