What is the stereotype of students at University of New Hampshire-Main Campus?

Krista

In 2007, The Princeton Review gave UNH the number seven spot on its annual list of party schools. This reinforced the familiar stereotype that already exists for public universities-we're a group of kids who see every night as a drinking night (just call them "Why Not Wednesdays") and every day as another class we're hungover for, if we make it there at all. If you buy into this, then you've probably heard that the only thing we use our backpacks for is transporting beer from one party to the next, where we'll chug it, funnel it and then stagger downtown for a slice of pizza. Since we're also a big hockey school, we've gotten a reputation for being rowdy and rioting in the streets. And sure, a lot of us do don hockey jerseys and really do love the sport, but for the rest of us, it's the same thing as Cinco De Mayo, the last night of finals or a friend's birthday. It's an excuse to get drunk.
