University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Top Questions

Large base from Illinois, overall the campus is in very good shape, smart students, awesome Unofficial St. Patricks day.

They're all from Chicago

We like to party?

Most everyone is from the chicagoland area.

That they are stuck up frat boys who only care about themselves. That they are rude and ridiculous in public places. That they treat women like shit and are the ultimate alpha males. That they dress up in expensive clothes or are in the weight room hours upon hours a day. All they care about is they have as much sex as possible with as many girls as possible. Finally, that all they do is get drunk and skip classes.

I think people who are from out of state or are from Illinois and end up going out of state think U. of I students are just kids who couldn't go anywhere else.

Tools&Skanks

A lot of people think that the campus is overrun by either engineers or farmers. Also that we live in a cornfield.

Well I wouldn't say that there is steretypes on Illinois students in general, more like stereotypes on "minorities." Things such as "Tacos & Tequlila" are occurring on campus. Many of Illinois' ethnic orgs go unnoticed on campus as well. We have houses such as La Casa, but I feel as though we have it just so that the school can say "we gave them something."

Their are many stereotypes such as everyone who goes to U of I is racist cause of the chief controversy and that all of the campus is hardcore drinkers and partiers.
