Chaminade College Preparatory 

Share definition Flag
Chaminade College Preparatory is a high school in southern California. While Chaminade freshmen start out lost and confused, carrying their expensive laptops around and avoiding the opposite sex, by senior year it is standard to spend every Friday night getting trashed with 90% of your classmates. Chaminade students can frequently be seen around the San Fernando Valley driving daddy's two year old, and thus discarded BMW. Chaminade students look down on public school students, as they should, because despite the rich kid cliche, Chaminade students are intelligent and successful, and get into colleges based on merit, rather than by the aid of a trust fund (see Oaks Christian High School). After four years of hard work, it is understandable that its upperclassmen should feel the need to let loose. Students are divided into two categories, very good looking, and frightening. The two groups are generally never seen together, and it is very uncommon to see mixed couples.
Victim of public education: Where do you go to school?
Chaminade college preparatory student: Chaminade
Victim of public education: HA, you mean SNOB-INADE
Chaminade student: It's okay, I have more money, more college acceptances, and good looks

Chaminade College Preparatory 2010 

Share definition Flag
Chaminade College Preparatory is a Catholic High school in the Marianist tradition. There are 1260 people in the school overall. 274 of those people are in the graduating class of 2010. Of those seniors 243 don’t have BMW, Mercedes, Range Rover, or Lexus brand cars parked in the Senior Lot today.There are 5 groups at my school: Popular kids, Awkward kids, Model students, Druggies and In-betweens.

Yet most schools have groups that somewhat mimic the categories described above, something that make Chaminade different is the interconnectedness that occurs between groups. This unifying phenomenon, affectionately labeled the “Chaminade Family” by administrators and not labeled anything by students, is what sets Chaminade seniors apart from the graduating classes of other high schools. Students are generally welcoming of students in other groups and even hang out with one another. On any given Saturday night, at any given party, nerds can be seen blazing with populars, druggies playing beer pong with model students, and moderates doing all sorts of party related activities.
Kurt Rhee really understands the students of Chaminade College Preparatory 2010. That class was definitely the best.

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
