Middlebury College Top Questions

What is the stereotype of students at Middlebury College?

Laura

I would say the typical jock/prep-school snob stereotypes exist, since Midd is so expensive.

Alex

- jcrew wearing preps OR crunchy hippies - smart AND outgoing - aka well-rounded - beautiful

Emmerson

Either that they're very preppy or all hippies, overachievers

Harper

They are well-off white people who love to ski and play strange games like lacrosse. They wear pearls and The North Face. They like to leave a small footprint. They 'work hard and play hard.' They have trouble with authority. They are international. They love it here.

Middlebury students are white, rich, white, and rich. White and rich? Yes, very.

Middlebury students generally fit into two categories: J-crew preppy types and cruncy outdoors type. There's also a large jock population.
