Hampden-Sydney, educating underachieving, rich, wannabe preppies since 1776. HSC is Radford, VCU, JMU, or any other lower-tier university transformed into a country club setting. (For elaboration, see definition 9). Students who go to this school were unable to get into the 'real' schools (ie: W&L, UNC, UVA, etc.), so they decided to attend Hampden-Sydney, which seems to accept anyone with a pen, checkbook, and sizeable bank account. The statistic that 1 in 10 men become doctors, lawyers, or owners of their own business is beguiling, because 1 in 10 student's father already owns his own company! Non-conformists are discouraged, so that the school may continue its historic, neocon ways. Students are belligerently conservative, often choosing the Republican side while being unaware of the subeject of discussion. Warning: Not a good school for individuals who think outside of the box.
Professor: Roswell, is this word part of the ablative or dative clause?

Roswell: Sorry, ma'am, I was yeyed up last night with my chronies and didn't get around to doing my homework. Daddy's money will cover for my lack of education.
