William and Mary Triathlon 

A tradition at William and Mary in which students go streaking in the Sunken Gardens (the central quad), go swimming in the Crim Dell (an algae-filled pond), and jump over the wall of the Governor's Palace (a building in Colonial Williamsburg) at night. Truly daring students do all of this naked.
Johnny: Dude, I saw you and your girlfriend naked in the Sunken Gardens last night!
Eric: Yeah man, we were doing the William and Mary Triathlon! Right after that, we went skinny-dipping in the Crim Dell!

William and Mary 

A small, public university in Williamsburg, Virginia. Often Called the "Alma Mater of the Nation" as many founding fathers were educated here.

Along with UVA, it is considered the most prestigious and selective college in Virginia, and among the most in the World.

As with other elite colleges, W&M suffers from bitter rejects who attend open enrollment colleges (like Virginia Tech) typing envious definitions on Urban Dictionary. In reality, W&M trumps their crap, open enrollment college in every single category.
Person 1: I dun gots inta' tech. I gun go eat my squerieel and fuck mu' sista now. The SouTh WiLl rAiiiiise again. Amen.

Person 2: Oh fuck yeah bro, just got into JMU! Wooooooooo pussy and coke 24/7

Person 3: I just want to smoke weed and finger paint all day......off to VCU I go.

If you're not into sister fucking, smoking weed and finger painting, or going braindead off liquor and coke....William and Mary might be for you.

William and Mary 

A public college in Virginia; home of the Tribe.
WILLIAM AND MARY, A Poem:

"Virginia Tech's
For hicks and rednecks,
And the bigoted prigs are all 'Hoos;
Potheads will state
That VCU's great,
And James Madison takes 1.2's...

If you're looking for schools
Without rednecks or tools
Where we're smart and we aren't all on crack,
We're the place that'll win ya
Right here here in Virginia -
Go TRIBE and you'll never go back!"

William and Mary 

The best school in the state of Virginia, William and Mary has a rich tradition of being better than the polo-wearing tools from the University of Virginia. The College, as it is often known, is where the smart kids from high school go to be surrounded by like-minded people who think activism, volunteering, and studying receive priority over partying (that's not to say there are no parties -- it's a college, so beer-pounding parties can be found every weekend). The College is a place where underachievers bitch about not getting in and washouts bitch about not getting out. There are many critics of the College who criticize the studiousness of students there -- that is only because some people forget the ultimate goal of college is to get an education, not a drinking problem. William and Mary is a place to go if you want to challenge yourself during the week and get the "college experience" during the weekend. Hark!
William and Mary has a good balance between getting shit done (i.e., studying and actually learning, social and political activism, and volunteering) and getting the "college experience" (i.e., going to the countless frat parties in the units Friday and Saturday night, drunkenly stumbling back to your dorm from Ludwell, and sneaking onto the grounds of the Governor's Palace in the middle of the night). Hark!

William and Mary 

The College of William and Mary is not named the University of William and Mary because it is trying to maintain its history.

William and Mary 

A small state school in Virginia chosen by students who are too smart for JMU and Tech, but not quite preppy enough (or tool-ish enough, depending on your point of view) for UVA. W&M has a bad reputation for being strict and lacking good parties. It's true that the academics are sometimes intense, that Williamsburg isn't a college town, and that the frats are located on-campus because of a city ordinance. But with over 5000 college students living here, not to mention grad students, it's definitely easy to get alcohol or weed and to find good parties every weekend... it's college, there's always something to do. People who complain about the academics are just bitter because they thought they were the shit in high school, got rejected at the Ivys, and can't believe that W&M is telling them they aren't as smart as they think. People who complain that there's nothing to do on the weekends should transfer to UVA, where they can be snotballs without feeling bitter and out of place.
Hey everybody, quit bitching about William and Mary!! You chose to come here and you can choose to transfer.
