Types of Kids @ Holy Cross

Who goes to Holy Cross?

Is there a huge jock crowd? Hipster crowd? Preppy trust fund kids? All of those? Is it cliquey? A student or parent could give a crack at this.

Lots of jocks for the reason that HC fields something like 25 division 1 sports teams which is a high percentage of a 3000 student body.

My experience there was that it’s a mix of middle of the road, “good kid” types, certainly with a preppy/athletic bent, but something for everyone and with a decidedly friendly, outgoing and open vibe.

What about kids who are into indie music, art, and enjoy going to shows on weekends? I would love to go into Boston to see various bands play on a Saturday, but would there be friends at school that would want to go with me? Or are Holy Cross kids mostly into the athletic event/preppy party type of weekend? I love sports too, I just hope the student body isn’t super homogeneous.

I’m sure you’d be able to find a crew like that, but you might have to search them out. I would strongly recommend visiting while school is in session. That’s the best and only true way to get a sense of the vibe of a place.

I’d be down, buddy lol. HC Class of 2019!
