Quinn

IDK-all from chicago lol I haven't heard any that stick seriously

Megan

Iowa is usually thought of as the state that's full of corn and hicks. However, people that are more familiar with Iowa, especially The University of Iowa, view our school as one of the top party schools in America.

KC

That Iowa is a party school and Iowa students are rich and preppy

Patrick

Iowa is boring/there is nothing to do. Everyone is a farmer/goober. The football team takes precedence over academics. The student body is stupid and drunk.

Kelsey

People think Iowa is a big party school. The bars here are 19 and extremely easy to get into. People also believe that the girls are easy and the boys are fine!

Connie

Rich brats from Chicago and farm kids from rural Iowa-it's mostly true. All white-also true Lots of good looking (and loose) girls

Lots of people think we all grew up on farms, that we are studying farming/corn, that we all know a lot about corn, and some people still think we grow potatoes. There are also people who think all Iowa has is a bunch of corn. People think we are all just a bunch of white kids and that there is no diversity on campus.
