Hampden-Sydney is a place where guys with good taste, and old money go to college. These are your guys in the pink polos, the bowties, the Brooks Brothers and Vineyard Vines. Most if not all own at least one copy of the Preppy Handbook. They pop their collars, smoke only the finest of cigars,rock and not only buy and sell most men, but also drink them under the table. Sydney men have their pick of girls from the surrounding private women's colleges; R-MWC, HU and SBC in descending order of class.These are guys in transition of becoming Drs., CEOs, Lawyers and politicians. These are real men. These are Sydney men.
Miffy-Muffin, I have met someone..he's tall, clean-cut, and well-endowed in all the senses of the phrase. You'll never guess where he's from!
Muffin-Girl, that's a Sydney man, you can always tell.

If you wanted to go to a Southern school, but Duke and U.Va weren't for you because they've enrolled too many "coloreds," and, besides, you had a 670 combined SAT and 1.9 GPA from a random Virginia day school, you're headed to Hampden-Sydney. There, you and a group of like-minded Abercrombie & Fitch-sporting retards can whittle away four years drinking, listening to Creedence, banging skanks from Sweetbriar, drinking, and pretending that the South won the War of Northern Aggression. You can also pretend that the fact that you're wearing a cowrie shell necklace under J. Crew flannels makes you rebellious, that the fact that you're wearing a "Fighting Cocks" baseball cap makes you witty, and that the fact that you attended HSC will make you a useful and productive member of society. If you don't ever want to face the fact that the world expands Westward of the mighty Mississippi and northward of the Mason Dixon line, HSC is a great place to start putting your head in the sand and your thumb up your ass.
Speaks for itself, don't it?

Hampden-Sydney is an all male school located in southern Virginia. WASPs dominate the rural 500+ acre campus. Men come to HSC to earn an education, but not just any education. An education that prepares each student for leadership and sucess in every sense of the word. Sucess in the financial, social, and athletic realms of life. The atmosphere at HSC has been compared to that of a private Country Club. The major difference between HSC and a Country Club is that the students who pay an enourmous amount of money to attend the school often have little power concerning legal and social affairs in the community. The corrupt board, administration, and faculty use the students to their advantage for their own self interests. This has often been said to be one of the only negative aspects of the community; however, this is a very big negative. Honor and tradition come with the price of a corrupt group of adults in power. If students had more of a voice, this community would be ideal for any WASP of the south east. The party scene is dominated by a variety drugs and alcohol. Women come to the school searching for their future six figure man. The key word here is searching. Good luck women. If this schools corrupt minority would let up just a hair, this would be the ideal community of rich, athletic, honorable, and scholarly gentelmen of the south.
If you want to be a sucessful, powerful, and influential leader in the world, I reccomend that you apply for admission at Hampden-Sydney.

Hampden-Sydney is the school where wealthy (most of the time) men send their sons when they cannot get into a better school. Brains and credentials aside -- if you have a thick wallet, you are most certainly welcome at Hampden-Sydney. Those of us in Virginia know that if you can't get into a good school, you go to Longwood or Radford instead. Hampden-Sydney is an upper-class version of the previously mentioned schools. So overall, if you want to pretend you go to a good school, but can't really get into one, go to Hampden-Sydney instead.
HSC Student: I go to Hampden-Sydney! American Citizen: Oh. You (probably) have money, but I'm sure you're lacking in the brains department.
HSC Student in denial: HSC is the best private school on the east coast.
Someone who knows what they're talking about: No it's not, fool.
HSC Student in denial: Oh really? Name one.
Someone who knows what they're talking about: How about 20...

Hampden Sydney is a lesson most Sweet Briar women first semester freshman year. They then move on to REAL men, not boarding school rejects who rely upon their family's money and H-SC alumni connections to advance in life.
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.

This a very interesting school to say the least. It is one of the last all-male (mainly gay) colleges in the USA. However, If you are gay, dont think you will be accepted here. HS only accepted you if your a rich mo-fo. Normally, the qualifications for admission are: 1). 1.0 GPA; 700 on SATs 2.) neo-con Bush lover 3.) From the South 4.) Having parents give the school a 35 Million $ gym. If you dont met these requirements, you will get your ass gang raped so take warning!
Frosh UVA student: Yo man! Who the hell is that stupid noob? He just touched that brother's ass!
Senior UVA student: I dont know man....Oh snap! He one of those gay dumd shits from that rich ass Hampden-Sydney place. I heard He had such a good ass pounding last week, he bled for 2 days!
Frosh UVA student: Yo..wtf? Those peps at HS are MAD BROKEBACK!!
