Get the Birmingham-Southern College mug.A small college in Holland, MI that is a leader in undergraduate research as well as basement ragers. Although occasionally campus safety can sometimes rain on the parade, as well as HPD which often forgets the large amount of shady activity on 16+ street and trolls the student-rich areas of 12th-15th street, the atmosphere is usually a balance of work, study, and fun. Visitors on Fridays will enjoy the best phelps food ever offered as well as the faint smell of the night before on many of the tired looking students. Hope College is a great community that produces the best students, and people, in the world.
"I visited Hope College last weekend. The Organic Chemistry class I sat in on went way over my head but the shenanigans that occurred in Kollen Hall will never be forgotten.

Probably the Best freaking public school in the state of New Jersey, and maybe even the Tri-State area. TCNJ's students are made up of some of the best leftovers that didn't have the money to afford Princeton. Many people tend to think of TCNJ in terms of Rutgers, but anyone with an STD can get into Rutgers. It takes a solid SAT score and an over-achiever's roster of extra-curriculars to get into The College. It may not be an Ivy, but it's definitely a Public Ivy. And, as the New York Times said, it's not just The College, it's "The HOT College."
Any SMART student that doesn't go to Rutgers, Rowan, Montclair, William Patterson (Willie P), Stockton, Rider, or Kean.
Some of TCNJ's best include an awesome group of (probably overpaid) student Ambassadors.
Mostly New Jersey students, but the 10% of out-of-staters include: New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Masschusettes, California, Arizona, Washington, and Kansas.
"Hey! Are you going to be one of the 10,000 sluts going to attend Rutgers with me in the fall?!"
"Well, I got in there. But, I got into The College of New Jersey as well. So, I figured I'd go to the better school. Plus, I like not having the HIV."

Get the The College of New Jersey mug.Methodist College is a private institution that is located in Fayetteville, NC. The student body primarily consists of extremely disfigured women and alcoholic golfers who drink heavily just to blur the memories of sleeping with them. While students who live on-campus suffer from a strictly enforced "no-alcohol policy", off-campus students at Heather Ridge Apartments enjoy the freedom of vandalizing and littering the complex with Beast Ice cans and King Cobra 40's. The HR residents also like to enjoy late night swimming, sausage fests, and 3 AM trips to Wafflehouse to admire the local crackheads. Even though Methodist College accumulates a ridiculous amount of revenue off tuition (3rd most expensive college in North Carolina), most would fail to recognize where this tuition money is utilized. Surely it isn't all spent on the burnt out "community college level" faculty. The money is obviously spent elsewhere because The Methodist College "Security" Force relies heavily on making money by giving students parking tickets for parking in an inappropriate fashion or driving 1.75 miles over the speed limit. Perhaps the most suitable conclusion for this definition would be the Methodist College Alma Mater. "Methodist College, where the men are men, and the women are too."

Get the Rollins College mug.A place consisting mostly of nerds: true. But, if you are funky enough and have enough balls to be smart and a fuck up at the same time, then no worries. NCP's finest students can't be found getting rimjobs by teachers in math class, nor will you find them jamming books up each others asses in the library; instead, look for the top students to be taking a refreshing nature walk by the river, or stinking up the bathroom stalls. At NCP it's not all about the ACT and the SAT, what it really comes down to is the FNS. Whether you're a Friendly Neighborhood Stoner or just a plain old Funky Northside Student, you know how we do.
Dude you go to Northside College Prep? Damn you can fuck around now AND go to a good ass college later, you're totally set.
