What are some stereotypes about Georgetown students?
Georgetown students are stereotyped as relatively conservative, preppy and attractive. The girls wear North Face fleeces, pearl necklaces, and pink ribbons tied around their blond ponytails. The boys wear Ralf Lauren Polo pastel colored polo shirts with popped collars and accompanying J.Crew “critter” decorated pants. They pregame morning basketball games with kegs and eggs, and pull all nighters in library cubicles. I went to see the Vagina Monologues a few weeks ago, and there is a scene called “The Moaner,” and the actress performs all sorts of sexual moans, stereotyping different ethnicities, social classes, etc– For the Georgetown Moan, she described “Jane Hoya” saying to “Joe Hoya,” “Oh no, oh no! My pearls are caught on your multiple popped collars!” These Jane and Joe Hoya students want to be investment bankers and vacation on Cape Cod.
