There is definitely a large population of these students, but it isn't 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the student body. Conn also has very down-to-earth students as well as its share of hippies and gamers.
Stephanie
They are accurate in your own mind. The truth is, Conn is what you make of it. If you have no desire to search for the little gems of New London that are outside the school, then you'll never find them and you'll be another CC student whose never left the campus
Jess
Overall, no. There is diversity on this campus, but there are a large majority of people who are classified as "bros." Academically, we are just as rigorous as any other small, liberal art school.
Maddy
To an extent, although you'll find that an outward appearance of a Conn student vastly differs from how they act towards people. We have our share of rich kids who feel entitled, but we have an equal amount of smart, talented, qualified students. It evens itself out.
Parker
Fairly, they are somewhat exaggerated but generally the student body is wealthier, and from New england.
Laura
Many students are wealthy but I think no more than any private school in the North East. Conn can at times feel like a country club, but it has been my experience with very little exploration there are a diverse group of students at Conn with Diverse interests, and although racial diversity is not at the ideal level the College has been making a great effort to improve the statistics.
Jenna
no, there is an eclectic mix of students, most of whom spend a majority of time in the library working
Catherine
no these stereotypes are not completely true, there is a wide variety of students at Connecticut College, who have a wide variety of interests and backgrounds.

A large percentage of the school is wealthy and superficially so. People who do not have money do not stand out and have a bit more trouble fitting in. The school treats the international students like garbage and ignores their needs once they arrive there. The drinking scene is uncontrollable and although the administration tries, they always loose to the students. The teachers and academic programs are strong, but some teachers seem that they would rather be elsewhere.
Peter
I think so, of course there are many exceptions, as with all stereotypes
