Throughout your Uni years, you will discover some stereotypes that repeat everywhere you go. Be advised, these are not as simple as the ones you knew from high school. We all grow and develop our new complexities and nuances.
Also, these are not typical cinema stereotypes! People studying uni now were born around 2000, while the classic stereotypical movies come from the ’90s. Things have changed, and so have students! Grunge gave way to Emo, and then to Hipster. Before, it was trendy to be a rockstar. Then, a footballer. Later, a DJ. And now, a youtuber. So here is our first take on university classmate stereotypes, hope you enjoy.
