Ivy League Stereotypes?

<p>what are your favorite stereotypes about each school?
input from current students or grads appreciated</p>

<p>p.s. this is just for fun</p>

<p>“you can always tell a Harvard man, but you can’t tell him much”</p>

<p>Even though I won’t fit that stereotype, I’m kind of excited to be going to a school with that reputation.</p>

<p>The old lightbulb changing joke gives some good Ivy stereotypes:</p>

<p>How many Princeton students does it take to change a lightbulb?
Two—one to mix the martinis and one to call the electrician.</p>

<p>How many Brown students does it take to change a lightbulb?
Eleven—one to change the lightbulb and ten to share the experience.</p>

<p>How many Dartmouth students does it take to change a lightbulb?
None—Hanover doesn’t have electricity.</p>

<p>How many Cornell students does it take to change a lightbulb?
Two–One to change the lightbulb and one to crack under the pressure.</p>

<p>How many Penn students does it take to change a lightbulb?
Only one, but he gets six credits for it.</p>

<p>How many Columbia students does it take to change a lightbulb?
Seventy-six–one to change the lightbulb, fifty to protest the lightbulb’s right to not change, and twenty-five to hold a counter-protest.</p>

<p>How many Yale students does it take to change a lightbulb?
None–New Haven looks better in the dark.</p>

<p>How many Harvard students does it take to change a lightbulb?
One–he holds the bulb and the world revolves around him</p>

<p>I thought the Harvard answer was six- “one to change the bulb and five to talk about how good the old bulb was”</p>
