The term derives from students that attend a public
school solely because they reside in close proximity to the
school (i.e., "residential students"), as opposed to attending the
school for a specific higher-level program (i.e., "magnet students"). Use of the term, however, can also be applied outside of the school context, and to
people exhibiting these characteristics in the broader world.
"Look at those rezzies fighting on the lawn."
