What is the stereotype of students at University of Iowa?

Sierra

Iowa students love to party and get drunk every night, wearing skimpy clothes in the dead of winter, hypothermia be damned.Fake ID's are easy to get.

Holly

University of Iowa is a party school. People say we don't know how to study, and that the classes are easy.

Katya

People party a lot.

Kate

I think that a big stereotype is that all we do is party and go out to the bars. Also, that the students from Illinois that go here are only doing so because they could not get into the University of Illinois.

Holly

It's a bit of a party school, but the education you will receive is fabulous.

Shelby

Friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Great educational environment.

Megan

I would say there are stereotypes about the school being hard because it is a top ten school. The stereotype surrouding Iowa students is that their tolerance levels are some of the highest in the country.

Brandon

That all Iowa students do is party

Whitney

They're all wasted and superficial. Chicago's deposit for the rich and the poor.

Kristin

The biggest stereotype is that this is a HUGE party campus and everyone spends the majority of their time drunk and/or in bars. There is also the one about how there isn't anything to do because this is Iowa...you're surrounded by corn.
