I'm an out of state-er thinking about UVA. What exactly makes it "douchy" or an unenjoyable student experience in general?

Its a love it/hate it type school. Secret societies, ties/dresses at football games, "Grounds,The University,Mr Jefferson,Firstyear...", Rugby Road. You either think its really cool and unique or incredibly pretentious or "douchy". You make the call.

Hmmm...

Brown? seriously? Whoever did the rankings should have explained how they came to their conclusion. What's the criteria?

You would know if you had read the thread before posting. See post #24.

Is it just me or does calling a university douchy only seem to increase its appeal? :P

Seriously - what is it about Duke? I'm yet to meet an alum who wouldn't qualify for every stereotype in this article.

Must be something in the water. Or maybe the university is secretly offering "******bag 101" to all incoming freshmen?

They snubbed UPenn!

And they attributed "Goldman Sachs summer-internship tote" to Duke instead!
