<p>Just remembered the most popular one:</p>
<p>“Don’t commit suicide!”</p>
<p>“So…how about that football team?”</p>
<p>“Doesnt it get cold there?”</p>
<p>“Oh! Didnt the UNABOMBER go there?”</p>
<p>“Arent the girls there really…uh…ugly?”</p>
<p>See location.</p>
<p>“Bahahah try not to turn gay!”
“It’s for lesbians, right?”</p>
<p>Marshall University</p>
<p>“Ewww! Why aren’t you going to WVU?”</p>
<p>“Because I want to do something besides burn couches and throw garbage at ball games.”</p>
<p>Case:</p>
<p>“Where Dreams go to die”
“The place where having a good computer is more important than having a girlfriend”
“Is that a Military School?”</p>
<p>Favorite quote from my advisors/deans
“I Dont Know”</p>
<p>“So are you gonna study computer science there?”
no…
“You should really study computer science there!”
…I don’t want to
“Isn’t that for music and artsy stuff?”
yeah, I plan to major in “artsy stuff”
“hahahahahMELLONS!hahahah”
my friends are idiots</p>
<p>so mostly I just say I’m going to a school in Pennsylvania or Pittsburgh and leave it at that, to which people say “ah, doesn’t Pittsburgh suck?”. I don’t know if it does, it seems okay, or just that I’m going to be really cold which I already know.</p>
<p>George Washington University:</p>
<p>“Yeah… you go to Georgetown right?”</p>
<p>Vanderbilt:</p>
<p>“Oh my god you’re super smart right?!”
Um… I guess.</p>
<p>“Why would you want to go all the way to Nashville when UT/Rice is much closer to home?”
SO tired of explaining my reasons for this.</p>
<p>“I’m sorry about your football team”
Yeah okay, me too, but they’re not our only sport. At all.</p>
<p>“Oh okay, I went to LSU/Bama/Auburn/Arkansas/other SEC school!”
That’s cool…?</p>
<p>Michigan State:</p>
<p>“Michigan State…hey that’s that school with the Wolverines right?”
-NOOOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>“You go to school in Michigan, wow that’s a good school!”
-Well sure, but it’s not the one you’re thinking of…</p>
<p>“Your school colors are blue and maize right?”
-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>“party school!!!”<br>
-Maybe, but any school that has almost 50,000 kids can be considered a “party school.” Most of us actually study too…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>^^i’ve done that before…cornell, correct? i apologize profusely, i can’t help it!</p>
<p>Smith College:</p>

<p>^^i go to an all-girls school, i feel ya.</p>
<p>Indiana University:</p>
<p>“Oh wow, it must be freezing there all the time, right?” (usually by fellow Californians. Ok yeah it’s cold during winter and such but it’s not like it’s sub zero every single day!)</p>
<p>“Great party school!” (yeah, but nearly every college is a great party school)</p>
<p>“Aren’t you in the middle of nowhere?” (not really, actually, the school is located in a very vibrant college town)</p>
<p>“They suck at sports” (true, but there’s more to a college then its football and basketball teams; plus everyone knows the history of IU basketball and how legendary the program is. they’re just going through some rough times right now, hahah)</p>
<p>this isn’t about my college but my major (from someone who went to college in China though so I don’t blame them)</p>
<p>“Civil Engineering? That’s not a common major right?”
“No, every major university basically has it.”
“But UC-Santa Barbara doesn’t have civil engineering.”
“…”</p>
<p>haha</p>
<p>Stanford</p>
<p>“Oh, Connecticut?”
- Not Stamford, dumbass (east coast foolery -_-)</p>
<p>“That’s mad far”
- No s***</p>
<p>“Damn, you’re gonna be chillin under the palm trees in 70 degree weather all year!”
- I thought the same thing until reality set in about the rainy season … It beats Noreasters though so I’m good</p>
<p>-“Hook me up with an Olympic gymnist!”
No, they’re all for me =D</p>
<p>“You’re going to turn into a Lakers fan”
-CHILL</p>
<p>Im going to UMiami in the fall, and it bothers me whenever someone accuses me of choosing it because they think its a party school, or whenever someone calls it ‘Suntan U’. It also annoys me when the first thing they being up about it is the weather there, although being from Michigan i guess i can be somewhat understanding about that.</p>
