elevatoring 

The up and down look one performs when checking out or scanning an attractive person, the action will usually linger over genitals or other body parts of interest briefly. Often the perpetrator will have a smirk or telling look giving away their intent as a way of flirting in a roundabout scumbag manner.

Elevatoring can occur facing the person or from behind but true elvatoring occurs face to face so that the victim is keenly aware of the occurrence.
Bob was fired for elevatoring his female coworkers whenever he was around them.

Elevatorization 

The rearranging/repositioning of people that occurs when someone gets on/off the elevator. The more populated the elevator, the more elevatorization will occur.

Factors that increase elevatorization:
a) unknown people
b) attractive people
c) disgusting/smelly people
d) weird people
e) what floor you are getting off at
Tim: Did you see how she moved away from me when that other guy got off?

Tyler: Ya, man. That's classic elevatorization. You should have showered today. Could smell you a mile away. Happens to the best of us though.

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
