What is the stereotype of students at Hofstra University?

Annie

There is a very large stereotype that Hofstra is full of guidos and typical rich, snobby Long Island girls. There is also something Hofstra students like to call the Hofstra run-around, meaning, whenever you need something done, every office on campus sends you somewhere else.

Laura

That people are Long Island trash, a lot of valley girls

Jo

Nicole

The typical "Hofstra girl" goes tanning, is an airhead, cares more about how she looks than how she does in class, talks about her weekend obnoxiously loud while you try to write notes, may be considered promiscuous and probably isn't that good looking despite thinking she is. She is also probably in a sorority. A lot of the students have rich parents and drive expensive cars and aren't in college to really learn but only because their parents paid for it. There are a lot of stupid people at Hofstra.

Spoiled Long Island kids more concerned about the cars they drive and the jeans they wear.

Hofstra students are seen as partiers. As a Long Islander all my life, Hofstra has always been made fun of for their student body being very sexually active. In fact, people perceive Hofstra students body to be full of S.T.D.'s.
