Attractiveness of Student Body

I read something somewhere that Colgate was one of the more attractive student bodies. I am no more vain than any other living breathing human being, but even so I need to know, how good looking are the women

I guess the best way to describe the student body is that if you were to visit and walk around campus, you would think "wow, these are really good looking people." The average person is a very clean cut, handsom guy or cute girl. However there are few jaw dropping people, but of course this isn't some mediocre state university. For the level of school it is, the student body is more than satisfying.

i mentioned this in another colgate thread, but when my S visited, he definitely noticed how good looking the girls were (he didn't comment on the guys).

TMP is correct, 99% of the women look like J Crew models.

Midd is close though

My roommates and I have talked about this very subject a couple of times. All I'm going to say is that we heard the same kinds of things that you guys are saying and after a few months here, we are all disappointed.

Colgate13- either you are a superficial jerk who have super high standards for women's looks or you forgot to take off your sunglasses to see that many of the Colgate women actually tale care of their bodies unlke many other schools I've been to!

i heard from someone that the student body is good-looking considering how prestigous Colgate is. Is this more accurate?

you don't have to be good-looking to go to a prestigious college/university...you need to be smart, interested, and intellectually curious, etc.....

i didn't mean that you have to be good-looking to get into a good college! i just meant that someone told me that Colgate students are good-looking in comparision to the students of other schools of similiar quality/caliber. i hope that makes more sense...
