Amazing school with top notch sports, academics, research facilities, and overall quality of student body. Rivals and even beats some Ivy League schools in terms of rankings. Most difficult to gain admission to and most prestigious university in North Carolina. Is sometimes known as "the Stanford of the East".

When you think up something brilliantly righteous while baked.

Gorgeous campus with beautiful Southern weather. Pretty preppy in terms of style, with a handful of alternative/theatrical types.

Named #2 douchiest school by GQ magazine in 2009. Not an entirely unrealistic assessment of this school full of frat star and wannabe frat star boys (who aren't as smooth or desirable as they think they are), insecure brainy women who are obsessed with the elliptical machines, and asians who stay in the library till 4 am doing orgo. So many asians. You either hang out with all asians, or you do your own thing with people of all races and avoid the cultural bubble on campus. Same with blacks--you're either with the BSA crowd and go to black parties, or you're on your own in the social scene. Greek life is a big deal until you're a sophomore, and then no one cares after that. Guys and girls don't date often here; the get-schwasted-and-hook-up culture is prevalent.

Everyone goes to Myrtle for the end of the year trip. You go to tailgate if you're an alcoholic in the making, and you tent if you're a basketball fanatic/engineer/not in a frat.

Everyone starts out premed, then a good handful switch into humanities courses to get straight As.

We like to party, then study, then party some more and do it all over again. Pounding beers until you pass out, then waking up the next morning at 8 am to hit the gym and write a term paper is pretty typical for a Dukie.

Institution of higher learning located in Durham, NC. Home to intelligent, competitive, party-loving people who like basketball a whole lot. Arguably one of the best schools in the nation, and one of the hardest to get into.

One of the most selective and prestigous universities in the world. Ranked top 5 in the nation by US Newsweek. Famous for its men's basketball team and academic reputation. Notorious for the lacrosse scandle and low racial interaction. Filled with school spirit, rich new england jocks and lots of alcohol.

Duke University is a place where those who write positive descriptions of the school on this website can write in intelligible english, while those who bash the school can't spell jersey, university, extremely, their, although, may, etc, and obviously attend either UNC or NC State or have taken a more respectable path in life, choosing to work at McDonald's. Duke University is the best school anywhere outside of Princeton, NJ, and Cambridge, MA, hands down.

A group of undergrads who believe that they are better than you, because they actually are.
