<p>what a complete idiot....</p>

<p>Umm...now I'm scared. There's no shelter anywhere! We're dooooooomed!</p>

<p>I hope you're not serious; this GIRL spent one night at Wellesley and felt that she could comment on the entire population's personalities and experiences. The article is poorly written and total crap.</p>

<p>Na, I'm not serious. After I read that, though, I did stop to think about why the heck I applied to Brown :rolleyes: My goodness. What young people do with themselves now....</p>

<p>Let me also just say that the girl who wrote that story didn't get permission to use any of the pictures that are included in the article. I wasn't impressed with it, to say the least.</p>

<p>It was so long that I just stopped reading after a while :o.</p>

<p>Harvard girls are ugly, they hate on us b/c we're not :)</p>

<p>rapper5- ::cracks up:: I love Wellesley even more now because of that comment.</p>

<p>(sigh) I really hope I get into Harvard so I can chill with you girls next year =).</p>

<p>Heck yes, you know us Wellesley girls...wild and ready to partayyyy! lol</p>

<p>At the last partay I attended we played Guestures and debated on the merits of Calvinism as a religious truth....where do I find these people?</p>

<p>that was one of the most biased articles i've ever read....</p>

<p>that was a horrible article. did you notice that every wellesley girl was described as "drunk"? before she even went to that party, she had obviously decided what she was going to say. if one of us went and spied on a harvard party, it would be the same thing. so biased.</p>

<p>"Marissa E. Pelliccia, a Wellesley freshman with striking blue eyes and a pretty face, "</p>

<p>What an idiot is right</p>

<p>I liked how she wrote about one girl, Theresa Piasta, who was obviously the only one the writer decides isn't "stereotypical" because she has "an inbox of party invitations, 86 Harvard Facebook friends, and a serious Harvard relationship under her belt." I'd bet money that Piasta was the token Wellesley student that the elitist writer deemed worthy enough to hang out with even before she wrote the article.</p>

<p>Although, for all I know, it could all be true..I don't go to Wellesley (but someone please say it ain't so! haha).</p>

<p>How disgusting...I didn't know Harvard women spoke of Wellesley women this way. Well, I did hear the stereotype of Wellesley women being "desperate" and all.</p>

<p>I read this article last year, while considering my acceptances and trying to decide where to go to school. It definitely freaked me out a little bit about Wellesley, but, this is completely unlike any party or attitude that I have observed on the Wellesley campus or among Wellesley students. The author was obviously biased (I'm not sure why..) against Wellesley students. Honestly, why would somebody decide to go to Wellesley with the objective of meeting boys...the basis for the article seems flawed. I also got a bit nervous when I read the article because of the "perception" that students from Harvard and other Boston-area schools have of Wellesley girls/women-- however, most Wellesley students are anything but desperate and the vast majority of people realize this. Its our CHOICE to go to an all-women's college after all! Anyway, if you're considering Wellesley, don't use this article as a legitimate resource to evaluate the social scene.</p>

<p>It's "99 problems, but a ***** ain’t one.” </p>

<p>She gets the Jay-Z lyric marginally wrong, but it completely changes the voice of the sentence, and is irrelevant to her point.</p>

<p>But, yeah, that article just reaffirms how b!tchy girls can be.</p>

<p>Hmmm, jealous much, Harvard girls?</p>
