Wheaton College-Norton Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at Wheaton College-Norton accurate?

Eileen

While some people fit into this description, Wheaton is full of mostly "normal" people. It's a really good mix of students where everyone can find a place to fit in.

Sara

Not if you look.

Kendall

Sometimes, our campus is almost 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} white and there are a lot of rich people there. Not everyone is spoiled or smokes though, but there is a lot of drinking.

Alex

like all stereotypes, some are, but I'd say that they're only a piece of Wheaton's population.

for some of the population

See above.

Ian

Rich kids don't all act like rich kids, but many do.

Chelsea

It is true that there is a primarily white community, but there are people from all socioeconomic levels and most people are incredibly friendly both on and off the campus. The people from Norton don't really like the students because of the stereotype but many people are very friendly.

Ryan

Only that there is a lot of drinking on the weekends, but it's not a must to have a good time.

Katie

The preppy/public ratio is about the same as it is at any other small private college in the Northeast, so not really.
