William and Mary

I don't know a single nerd at this school. Only people who kind of flounder and don't take school seriously. When we went to the campus there was a woman walking into the dorm with a bra and underwear only and no one batted an eye. It's close to DC. That's its main draw.

Whoa no! William and Mary won't do...


Fun fact - that line is about Bard, which used to be called the “William and Mary of the north.”

Great song. It was about a drug bust at Bard. William and Mary was chosen because the syllables fit the music and lyrics.

This is such a bizarre answer. What does her boyfriend have to do with it?


It sounds like a parent I know who kept making deprecating comments about the type of kids who go to W&M while humblebragging about her son who chose UVA. It was so odd and definitely left an impression.

There are party kids at very school. There are "nerds" at every school. I'm pretty sure you can be both, too.

I hope this was a joke - if not - yikes! Do you hear yourself??

Sure - but be honest - the extent of how many kids are into “stupid drama, drinking, and weed” and how much “stupid drama, drinking, and weed” is part of the culture DOES across schools. By A LOT in some cases. OP has a valid question.

Every college has drugs and alcohol don’t be absurd and get off your high horse

Your kid isn’t better than other kids bec they choose to be what you call a nerd.

Grow up and your kid will make it one semester if that.

William and Mary has the same drugs as any other school.


I do not see OP (or daughter) expressing any judgement here - it's a valid question about social fit.

Of course all schools have drug use - but not all schools have the same level of drug use.

Huh? You’re at campus and see a single woman dressed like this and claim you don’t know a single nerd at the school. My guess is you know hardly anyone at the school.
