<p>Reed is one school that defines quirky; here’s what Reed says:

Today’s viewbook features a traditional campus vista on the front cover—large, red-bricked Old Dorm Block decked out in glorious fall foliage—and asks the question: “Is Reed Right for You?” The answer: “Serious. Quirky. Rigorous. Free-thinking. Classical. Iconoclastic. Paradoxical…Reed is one of the most intellectual colleges anywhere, and it is not for everyone.”</p>

<p>“The students are still idiosyncratic, … they’re still whimsical. I don’t believe they are as politically radical as they used to be, but that’s a generational change, a sign of the times.”</p>

<p>“There are some who think that today’s students aren’t as interesting or quirky or eccentric as they used to be, that they’re all vanilla,” he says. “And that’s just false. That’s not what is happening.”
