student ghetto

n. an urban neighborhood primarily inhabited by college students, and located near major universities. A combination of students' low incomes, lifestyles, and constant demand for housing provides landlords no incentive to maintain their properties and locals no incentive to stay. Although shabby, these areas usually have fairly row crime rates when compared with actual ghettos.

Examples include: Oakland in Pittsburgh (Pitt and CMU), Hyde Park in Chicago (UChicago), and the entirety of State College, PA (Penn State)
Parent: "The area around the University looks awful!" Tour guide: "Don't worry, ma'am, it's just a student ghetto."

Medical Student

The most hardcore people you will ever meet. They are two thirds of the Mars Bar slogan: work, play. Always accompanied by their iPhone and possibly a pager.

The Student Room

The Student Room, or TSR for short... Beware, all ye who enter The Student Room. As its name sufficiently conveys, the Student Room is teeming with students. And not just any students. The students The Student Room is teeming with are a special brand of toadying ignoramuses of British or British-wannabe students whose sole goal in life is to break the world record for one or more (preferably all) of the following:
1. A* grades at GCSE and A level and unis got offers fromy
2. Studying Dentistry at Oxbridge (additionally, take note of the heart-warming fact that if you're studying something low like English Literature, you will be offered a couch for the nights)
Popular spare time excursions of The Student Roomers include:
1. Woman-bedding (a more popular alternative is woman-bashing)
2. Bashing of Muslamists and Pakis (both constitute a wide range of personally-held beliefs, hard to part with)
3. Generally strutting about like a rooster who has done all that is due of him in life once he has contributed to the production of a fertilised egg fit for either consumption or propagation
The only reason to enter The Student Room would be to troll. Trolls are verily the only incentive for The Student Room's extant status.
The Student Room normal thread title: 'Girls, rate my face. Boys too, I suppose.'
The Student Room normal thread title 2: 'Why is it socially unacceptable to be a virgin?'
The Student Room normal thread title 3: 'The reason there are so many virgins about the place these days is because women are becoming so uptight and that's thanks to Feminazism.'

The Student Room troll thread title: My mum left my little brother with me for the day, and I was wondering if tucking a child into bed is considered child abuse?

The Student Room troll thread title 2: WHY ARE THERE NO PEOPLE IN THEIR 20S IN SOCIAL GROUPS I AM LONELY AND IN MY 20S AND THERE ARE NO PEOPLE IN THEIR 20S IN MY SOCIAL GROUPS?????
The Student Room troll thread title 3: What do you do to become a cleaner at insert name of Oxbridge college? Anything special?
Sadly, most of the troll threads are removed soon by over-zealous mods. If you're lucky you won't miss them. They are vastly entertaining.

starving student

A college student with limited pocket money, who makes do either by loan gratuity and/or a low paying part-time job. While the term "starving" may be an exaggeration, the "starving student" diet (often consisting of Ramen or other cheap packaged foods) is not.
Guy wanted to buy an engagement ring for his girlfriend
but couldn't; they were both starving students.

IB STUDENTS

IB students, generally, are sane people that take a 2-year program which makes them insane. They are found famous for nervous breakdowns. An IB students typical day is like this: wake up at 7.30 am, use the restroom, study while eating, study, go to school, come home, study, study while eating, study, and then, sleep at 1.30 next morning. IB is not hell. It is simply a course that makes you want to kill your friends in the urge to be the valedictorian. IB students are usually hated by most people. They are outcasts. They get a indescribable amount of homework. Moreover, they lack the inability to talk, communicate or to do any other social thing. They miss their youth.
IB TEACHER: Who can tell me why the Chinese Ming were far wealthier then their predecessors, Shang and Tang?

IB STUDENTS: Mmm.. There are a dozen different ways to answer that question. In Bentley and Zeiger's perspective its because of a tax system levied on people. In McNeil's perspective its because of canals that were developed through Huang He. But, in David Christians perspective, its because of the defense put on the northern frontier to protect the Chinese from the steppe nomads.
