SPOT THE
STUDENT STEREOTYPES
The Languages Students
Their excuse for spending their money (parents or bank loans) is that they can never fully embrace the language without fully experiencing the country. So they’ve traipsed off to the beaches in Thailand or soaked up the sun in Brazil – all in the name of education. While you’ve been working over the holidays, they come back to university and show you pictures of them in some exotic country.

The Drama Students
They sport clashing looks and outfits, have a huge collection of berets and bowler hats and can be counted on to entertain students on a dreary day in campus. But if you’re thinking that they’ll break into a dance and sing like the cast from Glee, you’ll be disappointed.

The Journalist Students
They could talk till the cows come home and because they’re always on the lookout for stories, they can seem like they’re prying! They’ve always got a camera round their necks and are up-to-date with the latest apps. Watch out for those grungy-looking appearances and National Geographic vests and trench coats.

The Science Students
They work hard and spend long hours in the university. The campus is their playground and the student union is their local pub. They’re popular and everyone knows them. If there’s a pub quiz, they’ll hog the front tables and whisper in quiet tones, taking those quizzes as seriously as their final exams! If you’re lucky, you might hear their own little group chants!

The Arts
Students
They never seem too stressed and take things as they come. They snub at high street stores and everything mainstream. They’ve got some favourite vintage store, an underground club they hang out in and are always having a little artsy debate.

The Law
Students
They’re normally very well dressed, always have something smart to say and could argue that the earth’s flat (if they had to!). Approach them only if you’ve got something clever to contribute.
