Is the stereotype of students at Quinnipiac University accurate?

Niki

Being a private school, there is going to be a portion of the population that will be financially stable. However, similar to any population, there are a wide variety of people.

david

true

Cody

A great percentage of the campus fits it.

Devin

The parties do get out of hand i guess. As for rich people, it's hard to tell. People don't really brag. Most people get financial aid anyway.

Laura

No, many girls are know have higher morals than they get credit for. Health science majors think they're God's gift to earth but I would dare any of them to try being an Econ, Accounting or any other major on campus and see if they'd think they're as hot.

Jamie

Some of these stereotypes are accurate, however there are a wide range of people at the University.

Christina

This stereotype is true in many cases, but there are also many students who are the exact opposite; students who are committed improving both the Quinnipiac and surrounding communities.

Kayla

Even though a good amount of people match this stereotype it is not true at all.

Yes! - The school is getting better! The library is packed, more college kids study and take their education seriously but that doesn't mean that they dont go out on the weekends. Majority of campus (around 90{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c}) go out to New Haven thursday-saturday night to unwind. - A lot of students are from Long Island, North Jersey but there are also a long percentage of people from Mass., New Hampshire, and Maine. - Quinnipiac is a country club and I love it that way! Our campus is AMAZING! Its soo beautiful the grass is green, everything is clean, the cleaning ladies clean bathrooms of all on campus buildings including apartment style dorms. Its awesome. - We are a white school, and QU works really hard to recruit minoraties to come here to meet the quota but there are very few Asians, African Americans, and Latinos. QU is a white school. I like it that way, that is one of the reasons that my parents decided on QU.

I think in some social groups it is certainly true, looking around the quad I see many students that could care less about the presidential election coming up because all they are thinking about is what they are going to wear to Toad's that Saturday. It is certainly discerning to see this but I know that Quinnipiac is not only made up of people like this, there are definitely real people here who are worth getting to know.
