What university are you?

Fun stuff 1 Minute


You’re the University of Washington!

A visionary for your area, you truly can see it all. At the same time, you used to be prone to burning out and trying to do it all. You have to remember that you’re just one person, and can’t be responsible for a whole community. But this is a lesson you’ve managed to learn long ago and now you rely on all sorts of people. Many of them really enjoy looking at you. Even though it seems like an out-of-date phrase, you’re a big fan of dubbing things.

    Your surroundings have always been spoiled and privileged to the point of being removed from reality. At the same time, you can be surprisingly down-to-earth and aren’t even above the consumption of insects. Despite being quite young, you have established yourself as one of the better researchers in your field. You love the strange phonetics of the word “zot”.”

    Never has one of these quizzes been so off-base with me. I’m not young. I did not grow up rich and privileged, and I don’t know what zot means. Okay, upon reflection maybe it’s not totally off – I am down to earth, I wouldn’t be above consuming insects under the right circumstances, and I’m a pretty good researcher. But still – it’s just a little too off-base.

  2. Totally random non-sequitir comment, but does anyone know which US Navy warships were involved in the encounter today with Iranian patrol boats? I didn’t see it on any of the wire reports I looked at, and while I’m saying a prayer of thanks for the safe outcome, I’m going to be especially relieved that a shooting naval battle didn’t errupt if those vessels were indeed Hampton Roads based.

  3. Thanks for the quiz Vivian…guess this is no surprise….varoom varoom…

    You’re the University of California, Berkeley!
    A true hippy, you really wish you could spend the rest of your life in the 1960’s. It’s not that you haven’t been able to settle down and be quite successful, but you yearn for the days of agitation and revolution. You’re fond of the old comic Bloom County, as well as the more recent Outland. The rest of your life looks like a struggle between your prestige and your radical nature. You really like those cheap Sathers candies.

  4. You’re Davidson College!
    You love your mama, Jesus, and America too. But rather than
    finding yourself in free-fall, you’ve been on the rise lately, as people
    have flocked to see you. Of all the wars that have been fought, you felt
    the Revolutionary War was most justified. Cherish is a word you use to
    describe all the feelings you have deep inside. If you were a book, it
    would be Charlotte’s Web.

    Uh, not so much.

  5. You’re Bowdoin College!
    Though you say you thrive under the sun, you tend to actually prefer snow. Lots and lots of snow. You’re a big Civil War buff, and like to imagine yourself having influence at that time of history. Known for being quite a cook, you’ve also been known to hit the bottle on more than one occasion. After all, there’s not much else to do in all that snow. You love those December Coke commercials.

    Bowdoin?!?! WTF?!?! Why not just stick me with Bard or Williams, Antioch even?!?! Jeez.

  6. You’re the University of Virginia!
    A fan of nickels and the Declaration of Independence, you are an established member of the good old boys club. You spent a long time trying to exclude people, but now you have managed to get a lot of publicity for being good at publicity. Though you do have a darker side, delving into Poe and pyromania. Some have said that you’re best known for being a bit rotund. Still, people can’t wait to meet you.

  7. You’re Wake Forest University!
    When people first meet you, they think of religious services that are strangely frenetic. But then you’re able to lighten up and even show them some Southern hospitality. You recently took this to the point of advocating that everyone have a computer, and you might even give them away if necessary. After all, even you’ve gone through momentous moves in the past, and you know what it takes to adjust. Your sculptures have nothing to lose but their chains.

    Well, maybe not, I’m more U.Va., but only if the Pep Band, Easters, and a certan fraternity come back.

  8. You’re Brown University!
    Though you have the most boring name imaginable, you are known for some incredibly funky and unpredictable moves. Above all, you avoid making judgments at all costs, sometimes going so far as to believe that everything is relative. Though you claim to require nothing specific from people for them to spend time with you, you do expect them to be smart and to have good handwriting. Though you hastily hesitate to really define “smart” or “good”.

  12. I’m the University of Haverford

    “While you generally think both genders have something to
    offer, there’s a big part of you that only wants to hang out with females.
    Your society of friends doesn’t really mar this desire, and your location
    makes it possible for you to enjoy the best of both worlds. You certainly
    have your moments, and many have afforded you laughter for your impressive
    comedic talents. You are often able to hear crickets when no one else
    can.”

    Pretty spot-on when I think about it. I do love the ladies.
