I think a bad stereotype about Maryland is that, since it's a state school, it isn't challenging.

Dan

Party school

Sam

Maryland students are sports fanatics who love to party. We're also, in general, pretty smart kids. The school tells you that there's something for everyone when you come to Maryland; they harp on our diversity factor. I'm not from here, so before I came, I didn't know much about the history of the school or what any of the stereotypes were. But you learn pretty quickly.
