The practical side of an Ohio Wesleyan education:
Important things to note about OWU include that it is a liberal arts college, so it is one the smaller side and does not offer a degree like a BS, only a BA. this is good however, as BAs go on to make more money anyways.
A multi-faceted endorsement of the academics at Indiana University–Bloomington:
Kelly Business school is re-donk-u-lus. They produced Mark Cuban, yeah that billionaire that gets to boss around Dirk Noviwnkskwyssksky. (sp?) … Oh yeah, and we have the Kinsey Institutue, where sex was invented.
Some trademark UConn enthusiam:
We are all crazed Husky basketball fans!!!! who love to party!!!!!! and don’t mind flipping a car over every once in a while after winning a big game!!!!!!
Playing Both Sides of the Fence edition, via Quinnipiac:
Don’t come here if academics are not your first priority. Also, don’t come here without a good fake ID.
Got to love the self-aware.

The University of Chicago Paradox: The Normal Don’t Fit In
In what will I’m sure feed a lively discussion on the Washington Post website, Amelia Rawls, a 1L at Yale Law, gets up on a pretty high horse to denounce her classmates, as well as thousands of students she’s never met. Ivy Leaguers, she declares, aren’t very “nice.”
I’m saying that sometimes some of these students will denounce world hunger but be unfriendly to the homeless. They will debate environmental policy but never offer to take out the trash. They will believe vehemently in many causes but roll their eyes when reminded to be humble, to be generous and to “do what is right.”
Seems like she’ll make an excellent, super-pious judge someday. She skims over the fact that American teenagers are known the world over for their self-absorption, and not just the ones lucky enough to score expensive private educations. Besides, what teenager wouldn’t roll his or her eyes when told “to do what is right”? I’m rolling mine right now and I’m 25.
The new best answer to the Best Class question, from a Hofstra student:
My favorite class is scuba class. Most people don’t know that we have this class, but I think it’s awesome that you can get credit for hanging out at the bottom of a pool for an hour. We do have tests, but they are a lot easier than regular academic classes.
Disillusioned Liberal Arts Student edition
From Swarthmore:
Honestly, this school tore me down, ripped me apart, and left me for dead. Usually when you tear something down you build it up again. But not here. I came in with great hopes and dreams of the future and now all I want to be is a dreg working at an Indian Casino living at home. I am not kidding so please don’t say, “This guy is just having fun with us.” Not the case at all. I truly hate academics now and the scholarly profession.
From Kenyon:
the only social activity here is having sex and drinking. these events are managed by the frats and sororities. this is really their only function other than raising money. this money is then spent on more beer. if i am awake at any time of the day i am probably studying, checking facebook, or staring at the food on my plate in disgust.
Our crack video team has created another, even better YouTube clip explaining who we are and what we’re about. What if you could change the way the world applied to college?
