<p>that's probably because harvard and yale have a lot in common in that they are both less fun than princeton</p>
<p>I'd say both H and Y are more fun than Princeton.</p>
<p>Princeton is where you try on brightly-colored polos, expensive khaki shorts, and flip flops, and pat yourself on the back all day for being so awesome.</p>
<p>So the title of this thread is more accurately, "krazykool doesn't like Princeton."</p>
<p>^^^ Lmao, krazykool, you just got dissed :)</p>
<p>Well, the troll is exposed, so this thread is pointless (not that it had much of a point in the first place).</p>
<p>theres no way that nobody likes princeton. It is one of the best, if not, the best school in the world, how could you not like that if you are a student or alum?</p>
<p>krazykool after reading several of your posts i cant help wonder where u get your information from, most if not all is way off the mark. I read your chances at Duke post and I do hope the advice you get will be far better then the advice you give. Please stop talking about things you know very little about.</p>

<p>ehhh... haha.</p>
<p>i've never overnight visited either. my friends who go to princeton love it. the eating clubs are awesome, princeton is one of the most fun schools in the top 15, up there with northwestern and duke.</p>
<p>people i know who go to harvard say the social scene is anywhere from "mediocre" to "horrible"</p>
<p>My personal ranking:
Harvard
Yale
Stanford
Princeton</p>
<p>Although I've heard Harvard has some haughty people in it...</p>

<p>I guess I'm glad you made the distinction ilovebagels, but I wasn't offended by your post. Besides, its impossible to generalize the community of an entire university, of many thousands of people from all walks of life.</p>
<p>i dont' like princeton, and i count as everybody</p>
<p>What's not to like? ISI's Choosing the Right College: The Whole Truth about America's Top Schools review of Princeton <a href="http://www.isi.org/college_guide/sample/aac/princeton.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.isi.org/college_guide/sample/aac/princeton.pdf</a></p>
<p>Princeton has had a lot of snooty, pretentious grads for decades. Your typical Princeton grad was F. Scott Fitzgerald. Need I say more?</p>
<p>8/8/08...boom.</p>
<p>Taxguy, how on earth are you claiming that F. Scott Fitzgerald was a snooty grad? Have you even read any of his books?</p>
<p>Harvard has had snooty pretentious graduates. Yale has had snooty pretentious graduates. Used to be only rich white men went there. Luckily, universities, like the countries they mirror, change.</p>
<p>And F. Scott Fitzgerald was the Holden Caulfield of snooty, i.e. the arty young man looking at snooty with pain in his heart.</p>
<p>Princeton isn't snooty. It's not urban. But the people there are almost unnervingly friendly. And the social scene is fun if you like social scenes.</p>
<p>You don't have to like Princeton. But at least dislike it for something that is a fact, like, it's in the suburbs, or, there aren't enough coffee shops in the town of Princeton, or the eating clubs make the culture of drinking too central, or writing three pieces of independent research, that are REQUIRED is too hard ----but it's not remotely snooty.</p>
<p>arbiter- If you read the linked article in post #33, it makes F. sound like he probably was one.</p>

<p>A harbinger? The summer olympics open that day...Hmmmm.</p>
<p>Yes I read Gatsby and one other book. Fitzgerald hit me as a rich, spoiled, party animal similar to Paris Hilton. Am I wrong on this?</p>
