The Herker 

Share definition Flag
A charmer indeed, the herker is seductive and dangerous. Men are hypnotized by her presence, powerless to resist. She stalks her prey at night. Preferred hunting grounds are patronized by the wealthy and intoxicated (Vegas, perhaps?). Be advised: giving into the herker is costly. Blink, though, and you could miss her. Much like the chupacabra, rumors of real life encounters with the herker have become legendary, causing some to naively question whether she exists.
Whilst sitting at the bar drinking heavily, a young man senses the presence of this womanly beast. He turns to his comrade and whispers excitedly, “Dude, I think that’s the herker..."

The Herrero Vortex

Share definition Flag
The Herrero Vortex is named for the situation, whereby one finds themselves in the company of someone who talks continually, non-stop, about stuff no one wants to hear, and apparently has the stamina to go for hours. It's coupled with the circumstance, where you cannot easily get away. At first there may be an interesting point made, or you just want to be polite. After a while, it becomes annoying and you just want it to end. It could even affect your mental state, as eventually, your only goal is to escape. It gets its name from the Spanish word for blacksmith - someone who tirelessly and with fortitude, hammers away at something for hours at a time.
Dude, I got caught in the Herrero Vortex last night, at that poker game. This guy just would not stop talking, and I made some bad calls.

One of the best schools in the world with the #1 ranking by the Princeton Review in AP CompSci, AP Psych, AP Chem, and AP Calc BC/Multivariate Calc.

Dumb bitches who wrote those other 2 definitions, you guys were probably just too stupid to get in.

Also happens to cost fricken $42,000 a year.

Absolutely beautiful campus with a $25 million building, Nichols Hall, the first gold-LED building in all of Santa Clara County.
"Heey, look at that Harker kid! He goes to THE HARKER SCHOOL!"

"Whoaa, his first car is a Bentley and he also took AP Calc BC in 8th grade -___-"

The Harker School

A world "reknowned" school that does not teach very much. As you can see by from the posting of the snobby, retard child who was fooled into a thinking he was getting a good education above, The Harker School is nothing more than a place for the monetarily well off who want to spend their money on a good-looking fog. Not only does The Harker School try to make itself look better by creating math competitions that involve no genius, but instead involve the knowledge of simple higher level concepts that are taught only at The Harker School. Alas, the world is is too blinded by the belief that money is directly related to quality. I went to a public school, and I'm probably smarter than 99.99% of the alumni and attendees of The Harker School.
"Hey that slut goes to THE Harker School! She probably doesn't know how to spell renowned."

"I pay a guy who graduated from The Harker School to mow my lawn because he dropped out of Stanford when he found out money couldn't buy you grades everywhere."

"Did you hear? The Harker School has a bus for its shit basketball team...3 people ride on it: the coaches and the bus driver."

The Harker School

The Harker School is a reknowned money hungry school. Known for the mi changs that go there or the other many nationalities that become white washed there. People who go here usually have stupid families, but because they are so rich and stupid (definition of the guy above) they do not care that all that money could actually help feed starving people. Those who reject this and say they do help less fortunate people are just lieing to themselves because we all know they are just doing it so they can go to a more expensive school in the future.
Be smart and go to a good public school like EVHS, Silver Creek, or many others and donate the money you would've used if you went to Harker to homeless shelters.

The guy above is such a stereotype mi chang.

The Harker School removes all cultural identity from those who go there and make them mi chang.

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
