i love my school
From Princeton Review:
"Clarkson U. Students Say...
"“It’s mostly white males and Asians” “looking to get managerial and high-end engineering jobs” here. “There are many athletes” and plenty of business majors with “gelled hair.” Overall, though, Clarkson students are “something of a nerdy crowd.” “The typical student is a nerdy white guy,” observes a senior. “The only people I have my nerdy classes with are other nerdy white guys.” “Pretty much everyone looks the same from an outsider’s view,” agrees a sophomore. “Diversity has a different meaning at Clarkson,” adds a junior. “What type of a techie are you?” Students describe themselves as “very smart,” “hardworking,” and “generally ambitious.” A large contingent is “friendly” and outgoing. The “socially awkward” “quiet kid in high school” who “doesn’t understand hygiene” is also here in spades. Clarkson’s “horrible ratio of men to women” makes for a “miserable sausage fest,” at least according to many males. Meanwhile, women have their own complaints. “It’s hard to find a good looking guy,” laments a senior. “There is a saying: ‘although the odds are good, the goods are odd.’” “If you take out most of the antisocial engineering boys, the ratio becomes closer to 50:50.” Other students claim that the ratio is “improving” and note that “SUNY Potsdam isn’t far.”"
lol keep in mind for 2011 the ration of guys to girls is 8:1....the freshman class this year is lucky, 3:1
