Ok. So the top 5 are the ones I have actually heard of.

Explain to me this list. I do not understand.

Does this mean Oxford and Cambridge are the top 2 "douchiest" Unis in the UK?
 
Lol @ BU. What's funny is that I've hooked up with more girls from their school than mine, probably because all the guys there are complete douches.

BC 4 lyfe yo

Oxford did produce Jeffrey Archer, who is an incomparable douche, but it remains a terrific place. The Bear is a fucking incredible pub, for a start.

I can't speak against Cambridge, either, without labelling a good number of my relatives as douches. Cannot do.

It's a list done by GQ magazine, i.e. can be safely ignored. Obviously, there's no good methodology at work here.

:lol @ NYU! My cousin just started NYU Dental on Monday.

I'm pretty sure this list is based on just the undergraduate colleges at each university, not the graduate/professional schools. The student body and academic environment can be completely different at the graduate level.

Really NYU to be a dentist? No one cares where dentists went to.
200k in debt.

Depends on what you want to do. I walk by the Harvard School of Dental Medicine all the time and it seems like there's quite a lot of high-level research being done there. More ambitious dentists interesting in doing dental research and working with relevant industries could benefit greatly from better dental schools.

That said, the dental school is freaking dwarfed by the Harvard Medical School behemoth, not to mention Brigham, Beth Israel, Dana Farber etc. on the Longwood medical campus. I don't think many people even know it exists.

WTF? BC should definitely be on that list. :lol I suffered for four years at that goddamn school, and am foolishly beginning another year for a master's degree starting Tuesday. Fuck my life.

Last time I checked, NYU was third worst in the country at providing scholarships, behind only Princeton and Harvard. Honestly, if you're not going there for the art education, I cannot see any good reason to take on that kind of debt when there are plenty of other private institutions that provide actual financial aide to students. (And I say this as a NYU Tisch alumni.)

Actually, Harvard is pretty decent in terms of providing financial aid. Because of their endowment and academic reputation, there's only need-based financial aid with no academic, athletic, or merit-based scholarships of any kind. I think a couple of years ago, they started providing 100% aid to students whose family's household income is less than $40,000, while increasing aid given to students whose family's household income was between $60,000 - 120,000, and $120,000 - 180,000. The nice thing is that the money awarded comes in the form of grants, not student loans. I was under the impression that Princeton had a similar policy. I know Harvard Law School starting provided tuition breaks for third-years pursuing careers in public service.
 
My Alma Matter, Arizona State:

Home of: The "Show Us Your Tits!" Douche

Most likely to: Inadvertently find an Internet picture of that girl from your Robert Ludlum seminar, sunburned and topless while vomiting a melon-ball shooter through her nose.

Favorite pickup line: "I like your boobs."

Profiles in studentia: Roger McFeelings,* Cincinnati. "I had such an awesome time in Cancún. I got really fucking tan, the girls were hot, and the Ecstasy was almost pure. I was like, I wish Cancún was a college! Then I realized, it is!"

Honorable-mention "show us your tits!" institutions: Duke, any state school in Florida or Arizona, U. of Delaware, Dartmouth.
*We only wish there were someone named Roger McFeelings.

Goddamn I miss it!

Well, I did say "last time I checked," which would be when I was applying to colleges in 2002.

But at the same time, I would kind of hope that they provide increased aide for families whose entire income for a year is just twice that of the cost of tuition at $30,000ish a year, not including housing. (Which is one of the primary issues with NYU, where housing is around $10,000 a year. Cheaper than many New York apartments and much, much less expensive than any other apartments of comparable size and location, but still an added expense.) I think it's less "do they give aide" as it is "how much aide are they giving in direct relation to how much it costs to attend."
 
Clicked on the thread thinking I hope CU Boulder is on the list. :lol

I'm a grad student here and there are some supreme douche bags at this campus. It's gotten a bit better in the last few years but Hugh Hefner's son coming here (yay playboy limo pick up at the library!) combined with how student's handled themselves during a national black caucus (spitting on people and calling them 'niggers') there was really only one way to go.

That's great, just great.

:lol at the colleges I applied to and decided not to attend. I might just show this to a friend going to Princeton. Oh, and at least Penn State got a Runner Up spot.
 
Duke should be #1.
Vassar should be in the top 10.
USC should be higher on the list.
Some random college in Wasilla that no one has ever heard of shouldn't be on the list just because Palin is such a popular punchline.

Bob Jones really should be number 1.

Surprised the list doesn't have my old college Lynn U (aka college for "im a rich twat who nearly flunked out of high school cause I don't care about anything other than my inheritance so my father made a huge contribution to get me into this school where I go to 3 classes a semester- the first, the mid term, and the final - and I drive the 3 minute walk to class and park my $100,000 car in the fire lane so I don't have to walk the extra 50 feet while acting like a dick towards kids who got in on academic merits and are actually trying to learn something other than how much money it will take to shut the mouth of the freshman girl who sooooo wanted it no matter what she says now but it's all good cause daddy would never let me go to prison and hey I crashed my bmw after too many jaeger bombs do you mind buying me a Porsche next and yeah there are guys like me in every college but here's a school where us douchebags actually far outnumber the serious students.)

Lots of hate bubbling up in this post :lol
 
God's Beard said:
How can Duke be in the top 3 if they produced Tucker Max?
Is that sarcasm? Tucker Max would be the first one to tell you he's a douche. Anyway I read the accompanying article in this month's GQ, funny stuff.
 
My biggest fear has been realized. That GQ would say University of Colorado is in the top 10.

At least they got the reason wrong.

Affectations: Prius; $400 Telemark skis you're not sure what to do with; bong made from recycled Nalgene bottles; white-guy dreads.
That I can deal with. All the institutional rape from the football club and frats? Not so much.
 
:lol @ Boston University

Home of: The Future Marketing Executives of America Douche
Most likely to: Major in communications and take it seriously.
Overheard at the "Winning in a Down Time: How to Brand Yourself" seminar aftermingle: "CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!"
Thesis topic: "Those Axe Ads: Totally Funny, Bro."

The bolded is exactly what my ex-girlfriend did. Heh.

It's 200k no matter what dental school you make it to. If it's out of state, it's not cheaper, because he'll have to come up with housing + food + whole bunch of other expenses. It all adds back up.

I've never seen such a disease of people reason their life on the price of their tuition, hardly used (and vastly expensive) skis, climbing gear, and brand new audi S4 wagons.
