A Wren

Share definition Flag
His communication style is a blend of raised eyebrows, heavy sighs, and an occasional harrumph that could put a disgruntled badger to shame. Every sentence seems to start with a "Back in my day…" and end with a "Kids these days…" – as if he's been appointed the official spokesperson for the Grumpy Geriatric Society.

But here's the twist: every now and then, when you least expect it, a Wren will unleash a joke that's so unexpected, so out of character, that you'll question if he's secretly moonlighting as a stand-up comedian. His deadpan delivery and the sheer absurdity of his jokes will leave you wondering if you've stepped into an alternate universe where irritable Geriatrics moonlight as comedians.
You can spot a WRen from a mile away, thanks to his signature "I'm not impressed" eyebrows that are practically in competition with his hairline.

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
