Wheaton College-Wheaton Top Questions

What is the stereotype of students at Wheaton College-Wheaton?

Dave

The stereotype someone told me after I decided to enroll is that Wheaton students are hyper-conservative, fundamentalist, type-A, workaholic, overachievers who are closed-minded to any authority other than the Bible. Most of them are engaged or in a serious relationship.

Laura

The perfectionist, over-achieving, white middle class evangelical kid.

Erik

No-fun, conservative prudes.

Harper

Type A, midwest Christians that were leaders of their youth groups and schools.

Aaron

Many other Christian Colleges believe Wheaton is too academically minded and not focused on community and genuine worship.

Grace

We work too hard, don't know how to have fun, are involved in way too many activities, and are very stoic.

Steven

Mike

Wheaton students are perfect Christians

Hannah

People say that Wheaton students are all type-A, go-getters, out to change the world. I think outsiders probably think that we are all straight-edge and boring, anti-partying, and prudish.

Michael

They're goody two shoes. They're really smart and terrible overachievers. They're fit, in shape, concerned about themselves and others; they're environment minded. They're the ultimate Christians.
