Emerson College Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at Emerson College accurate?

Angela

There's a lot of gay students, and a lot of students who act very stereotypically gay. It really depends on what you do, though. You see a lot more gay students in theater than in, say, visual media arts.

With about 25{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the school

Rico

Pretty much.

Not entirely. Although MOST of the Emerson population is gay, there are still plenty of good looking straight artsy guys. As for the awkwardness stereotype, Emerson has athletes and sorority girls, but even most of them have an awkward side at times.

We do have a significant homosexual population. Some kids are fashionable some aren't. However, it is totally unacceptable to go to a party in a sweatshirt and sneakers. We do have some emo-kids, but it's not all of us. And we kinda are alcoholics and potheads.

Gary

It seems that way; Emerson has a large and welcoming GLBT population, but there are straight guys (such as yours truly). I think the second stereotype exists because Emerson is such a liberal and artsy school. But there are sane people who come here. By the way, we do have some Republicans and conservatives on campus.

Alecia

To some extent, we still watch things like the superbowl and the world series! It's less into sports because we have less sports teams (and no football team) but we still have some jocks.

Celeste

Yeah, these are pretty much true
