What is the stereotype of students at University of Rhode Island?

Jonathan

The stereotype of students at U.R.I. is that of stoners. If you have seen my other answers you will see that I reference this multiple times. It is relatively prevalent on campus. I remember after transferring and living on campus I lived in Heathman Hall, and I had a joined room via bathroom with another student. For the majority of the year the kid I was joined with dealt, the kid across the hall dealt, and there was a kid down that hall that dealt medicinal stuff. It can be hard to get away from, but it does instill a strong constitution if you choose to avoid it.

Never on task...party animals.

Steve

As incomming freshman, many students believe that you need to be involved in a Fraternity or Sorority in order to have a social life. This is not the case at all. Join a club or find friends to study with and there will be things to do on the weekends. URI has a reputation as a party school. It is.. more so as upper classmen once you have a chance to Network with other students

URI can sometimes get a bad rep as a party school, we also have two other stereotypes, we get a lot of the hippie stereotype and the "jersey girl" stereotype.
