University of the Sciences in Philadelphia

A "prestigious" university located in University City along Woodland Avenue in Philadelphia. This school was originally the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, but has in relatively recent times expanded to include a lot of other sciencey stuff. It is known for pharmacy, because it was the first pharmacy school in the western hemisphere. It has been called (stupidly) USiP (everyone knows you don't include prepositions in acronyms, but leave it to a science school...), USP, and just a month ago renamed USciences (USci was taken by some California school that got pissed when we tried to use it). The campus is small and compact compared to local Drexel or UPenn. There aren't ANY food trucks, which are a staple of Philly. The parties are okay, and interaction with Drexel and UPenn is good. It's not impossible to get into this school. The faculty and student body is extremely diverse. At least one of your teachers at any given time will not speak English as a first language. A good amount of the students are India/Asian, followed by white, and then black, and then a small collection of other. Most major in pharmacy and like 70% are residents. Cafeteria is lame. No distinguished sports except for rifle. (Yeah, shooting.) Gym is a required class. Colors are red and black, or officially "crimson and slate." Mascot is the devil.

University of Alabama in Huntsville

(proper noun) 1: A university located in Huntsville, Alabama, which functions primary as a nerd farm and prides itself on its inability to cancel classes 2: Ugly girls 3: Complete boredom

(1) UAH Student 1: OMIGOD! It’s a hurricane, three tornadoes, and every building is on fire all at the same time! Run!
UAH Student 2 (demurring): Drat. The flying debris and collapsing structures will cause my delayed arrival to the exigent astrophysical biology exam occurring later today…

(2) That chick is so ugly she must go to UAH (the University of Alabama in Huntsville).

(3) UAH Student 1: Can you help me with this boring 10,000 question assignment regarding the solidification of nickel-based super alloys under the influence of various inert gases?
UAH Student 2: I'd rather kill myself.

University of Alabama in Huntsville

The best school in Alabama for Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. While you went off to Auburn or Alabama-Tuscaloosa we decided to stay in Huntsville, save money, make money. By the time you come back from your party school most of the people at UAH will already have houses and cars. In fact, a UAH grad might be your boss with our already 4 years of working experience. (Only in respect to Aerospace and Mechanical, we are shit at everything else).

Quickly growing despite our old and decaying buildings (ENGINEERING AND TECH HALL, I AM TALKING ABOUT YOU) while new buildings are being built for faculty and staff. Students like to complain about parking, classes, and how boring it can be here.

We do not have football at this school. Instead, we have HOCKEY!

The girls at this school are tenfold better than whoever posted on here about UAH in 2005. We can credit this to the rising star of UAH, the Nursing program.

UAH Guy 1: "I go to the University of Alabama in Huntsville"
Old Guy 1: "Wow that school is hard"
UAH Guy 1 "It sure is"

UAH Guy on Reddit: "There is no damn parking here"
Random Guy: "Literally every college complains about parking your school is not any different"
