Fraternities are stereotyped as "frats" that do "fratty" things like shotgun beers, break stuff, wear preppy clothes, and hook up with lots of girls. Sorority girls (especially the "Core Four" -the dumbest, most stuck-up, snotty, bitch thing I've ever heard of with the exception of the "Key Three" which makes me wonder who the FUCK these girls think they are) are a bunch of cocaine using sluts. If you study a lot you are sometimes jokingly referred to as "Asian."

Elitist, uptight, nerdy kids who spend all their time weirdly cheering for a less than stellar basketball team while worshipping their Gothic architecture

The main stereotypes that are prevalent at Duke: 1) That as diverse as Duke appears to be it still appears that some of the social groups are divided along the lines of race. ( Specifically the asian kids who tend to have stronger connection to each other. 2) That the black students who are here are only here due to affirmative action 3) Duke does not really have much of a dating scene but is more of a hookup society 4) A majority of the girls at duke are not that attractive

Sandy

Smart and spoiled

Ryan

Elitist, rich, privileged, intelligent

I personally didn't know much about Duke before I came here, so I kind of learned the stereotypes after I got to school. I think the main things are that the kids are all rich and stuck up, and white. And that there's the whole southern debutante thing going on. Oh and of course we're lacrosse-playing rapists.
