Although the academics of the school and diversity are exponential, the drama is not. So many people are knee-deep in that shit that they don't know what its like to live life. From snotty rich kids to complete assholes, this school really has the ability to make you kill yourself.

When a college student walks right in front of a car because, hey, on campus students have the absolute right of way.
Boy: Sorry it took me so long to get here, I was driving and everyone kept Stony Brook walking in front of me.
Girl: Ugh, I hate Stony Brook walkers.

Public college on Long Island. Since it's cheap and its science and engineering departments are highly ranked, especially for a public school, something like 2/3 of the students are from LI or NYC. A lot of the rest are international so bio, calculus, etc. are like 50% Asian.
Since most people live so close to campus, most of them leave Thursday night and Friday morning and don't come back until Monday morning, leaving a lot of creepy antisocial international students and hardly anyone else. There's a few cool people who actually talk to other people, and some of them even party.
It's pretty good though for people who want to become doctors or engineers though, lots of people get offers from Microsoft, Google, and GM.
So basically, a typical engineering college.

"It took me half an hour to print my final paper out because there were like a dozen nervous Bio and Chem students printing out the whole semester's powerpoints ahead of me."
"Sounds like Stony Brook University to me."

A college on the north shore of eastern long island made up of mostly asians and teachers who don't speak English very well. It is a good science school simply for the fact that it has extremely hard science classes and is notorius for its crazy night life at the full moon cafe.
Did you pass the orgo test?
Hell yeah good thing I payed Todds $400 to tutor me.

Located in the middle of nowhere of Long Island, it is a fairly easy to get into public university known for terrific science departments, huge number of asians, indians and other international students, rape, depression and suicide.
There are a shitload of premeds. Expect 95% of anyone taking biology or chemistry to be attempting to get into medical/dental school. Science classes are ridiculously overcrowded as a result. Still, for it's price its a great buy.

Student 1: So I'm taking Chemistry this semester. Lecture is totally packed with foreigners trying to get into med school!
Student 2: Ah - you must go to Stony Brook University.

Small shitty town filled with greasy meth heads with missing teeth, criminals, abortions, and annoying speed limits.
