UVM: The University of Vermont is a place where out-of-staters (mostly from Massachusetts or Long Island) come and morph into what they think a "Vermonter" is. This means they wear patchwork clothing, get dread-locks, and take on a new way of talking: slow and sounding perpetually stoned using phrases such as "yeah man". The true Vermonters look at the out-of-staters attempts at being "Vermonters" and wonder where the hell these people came from.

The student body is not made up of "hippies" rather, it is made up of
"trustafarians" (see definition). However, there is still the assortment of jocks, frat boys, sorority girls, and people who look like they play Dungeons and Dragons and are not ashamed of it. There is a slight lack of cultural diversity at the University of Vermont.

Overall UVM is a melting pot of people and is not just made up of pot-smoking trustafarians.
Person A: Oh, so you go to UVM, that means you like Phish and want to save the earth and all that right?

UVM student: Definitely, Phish is the most amazing band. Saving the planet is of the utmost importance. Hey man, do you need a ride? My Suburban is parked over there.

Abbreviation for Ultimate value man, meaning a man who has reached such a level of perfection that every woman wants to date them.

Such an example could be "Giga-chad" who has been recognized on the internet for having the perfect body known to humanity today.

A UVM could also be someone who in fact doesn't go for women but is still at the highest known level of perfection possible, similar to an HVM (High-value man) who doesn't go for gold-diggers.

Usually, these types of men aren't the types to date, their passion is somewhere else, in a defined field of action. And if they do, it will only be until they find someone who has either the same amount of charisma as them or someone who is viable as a life-long partner.
"I had the chance to encounter a UVM yesterday."

"Oh, how nice, how did he approach you?"

"He didn't."

A term often used at UVM (Burlington, VT). “UVM hot” refers to when an attractive women lowers her standards to accommodate the men standards in Burlington. With more women than men on campus, there’s bound to be an uneven divide. All the sudden the homeless looking men are solid options. Out of those options, many of these men are gay, bi, or somewhere in between, leaving you with a resounding small pool of potential picks. Prior to being at uvm, these people might’ve not seemed attractive to you, but now are. This dissolution will grow through the 4 years of attending this “stuck-in-the-70s-skier-crunchy-raggy-crusty-earthy-pseudo-hippie” school/city. Why is Bernie attractive all the sudden? It’s because he’s UVM hot.
Oh the burnout smoking a cig on a porch next to his skateboard? UVM hot.
Synonyms for “UVM hot”:
“He composts”
“Not actually attractive but you’re blinded by the shitty options”
“Smells like weed and moles”
“Real-world ugly”
“I don’t know what I was thinking”
“Looks good only with ski goggles, helmet and snow pants on”
Katie: “Hey girl I need your opinion on this guy. Is he actually hot or is he UVM hot?”
Paige: “definitely UVM hot but honestly can’t tell the difference anymore”

Samantha: “I’m questioning if I should just turn lesbian at this point.”
Georgia: “That would definitely better your chances of not being single”
