wellesley

1) A town in suburban Boston that is supposedly one of the richest in the country. On any given day walking down Central Street you'll come across 50 newly-wed 20-30 something blonde housewives with a stroller or a kid in her arms, doing the daily round in Talbots after parking her BWM in a sea of other BMWs while her husband is out working in Boston as a portfolio manager in some investment management firm.

2) An all-women's college in the aforementioned town that is populated by many talented and friendly people but under the guidance of a staff adamant about the benefits of a single-sex education. The least "lesbianized" college out the Seven Sisters (Smith, Bryn Mawr, etc.) Well-known for its fuck truck and for providing a constant source of wives for the preppy men in Harvard and the nerdy men in MIT since its inception. Not to be confused with Wesleyan.

1) You can't get any liquor in Wellesley except in like 3 restaurants.

2) MIT Frat Guy: Sorry this party is for 21 and over only.
Wellesley Girl: I'm from Wellesley.
MIT Frat Guy: Common in.

Wellesley Women

"Women who will" (TM)...

...make advances in medicine
...publish award winning novels
...win nobel prizes
...achieve their dreams
...kick your ass for stereotyping them

Wellesley Women get things done, when they choose.

Wellesley College

An amazing school 30 min from Boston that offers women the best of everything, from education to personal growth to the future. It boasts an awesome extention of alumnae connection, wonderful professors who teach because its what they love to do, and it has a tight community that is incomparable.

I hated Harvard when I was there. I wish I attended Wellesley instead.

Wellesley Goggles

When you've been at Wellesley long enough that the standards of male attractivness are lowerd substantially.

Girl 1: Look, he's cute!
Girl 2: Honey, I think you've developed Wellesley goggles. That guy clearly has not showered or shaved in several months.

Arthur Wellesley

Arthur Wellesly, the 1st Duke of Wellington. He was one of the most badass British heroes to ever live, and a commander in the British army. Although there were many Dukes of Wellington throughout history, Wellesly will always be known as THE Duke of Wellington, as he was the man who was able to finally beat Napoleon once and for all during the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, and save Europe from from his iron grasp.

The Duke also went on to serve as the Prime Minister of Great Britain for two years.

Arthur Wellesley annihilated Napoleon at Waterloo! The Duke is to Napoleon, what Batman is to the Joker, and what Sherlock Holmes is to Professor Moriarity.

Wellesley chop

The short haircut that many girls decide to get when they first come to Wellesley College, a private womens' liberal arts school. Some associate this trend with the school's high queer population (many students come out upon arriving at Wellesley), the fact that long hair is difficult to take care of, no longer having to impress men in an all-female environment, or because the other women played with their hair too much.

Dude, did you see Ana? She totally went for the Wellesley chop!

Wellesley College

A chick school outside of Boston. Its most famous alum is Hilary Rodham Clinton, need I say more? Wellesley chicks are in a class of their own, just ask the boys from Harvard and MIT

Wait, she has a kick ass career and married the cutest boy from Harvard?
Oh she went to Wellesley...
