I’m not sure if it had to do with me being surrounded by other students around my age range, different maturity levels, or the overall college experience, but after 4 years, I believe that college students are more likely to be accepting and understanding of each other, when compared to other groups of people.
High school stereotypes = popularity contest, social status, and cliquish behavior
Adult stereotypes = generally more mature, focused on their career/future, different behaviors from high school and college students.
