<p>10 things I hate about you, The Notebook, Gossip Girl, Entourage, Jeopardy etc... For a liberal arts college that isn't so highly ranked, it seems to have a lot of prestige/reputation in pop culture...?</p>
For starters, JJ Abrams, Jane Seymour, Lauren Holly, Holly Robinson, Robin Givens, Sam Robards, Yoko, Carly SImon, Brian DePalma, Juliana Margulies, Cary Elweis, Jordan Peele, Tea Leoni and a couple dozen other Hollywood types went there. It also has a bit of an exaggerated reputation as a home for artsy, eccentric kids (especially girls), so it’s an easy way to show that a character is creative.
