The sterotypes definately exist and are generally true, the ppl at porter are kinda weid but appear super nice, compared to the other colleges. one guy gave us a tour to his room, around the building, etc. They have died hair, clothes, weird stuff. saw some guys playing dodge ball in the quad. It’s a very laid back atmosphere, most laid back of all colleges. I was talking to an RA there and he says he doesn’t care and never busts ppl for smoking pot. And the dorms are old and ****.

Don’t know much about other colleges but 8 has the coolest housing, and view, and they are laidback-uptight, so they party and chill and also study when necessary.

Stevenson/cowell/9/10 has the most normal people. 9/10 has a lot of asians, and its pretty difficult getting in there, one guy i talked to got denied.

9/10 has the biggest dorms, modern buildings.

Porter was the only college where i saw a bunch of ppl, and they were playing dodge ball, probably around 30 people. Probably has the best community feel.

Kresge i heard is like porter, except more hippyish while porters more artsy. I didn’t see one asian at porter, but i saw like 10-20 at 9 and 10.
You could definately tell the college by looking at people. Also you can tell by the music they play. Hiphop was playing at oakes, for example.

Top 5 is probably gonna be:
9
10
8
Stevenson
Cowell

cuz i wanna have a balance between chilling AND studying.
