Are people weird at Barnard?

Yeah like there’s no typical new yorker. It’s the opposite of typical which is why people either like it or not. If you like uniformity and convention, NYC by definition is not great for you. Stay in the suburbs. And I supposed then Barnard isn’t a good fit for you eiter either. If you like people generally expressing themselves sometimes randomly, striving passionately after some ideal or goal, doing something completely new and refreshing and daring, then NYC is for you and by extension so is Barnard. The City tends to attract doers and dreamers combined. You either want to join or leave it behind. If you want the City part but more suburban feel, try Fordham or Manhattanville or Webster. If you want more of the arty out there striving part of NYC try NYU the CUNYs and SUNY’s FIT.
