Thread: Strong FCS showing in GQ's Douchiest Colleges

    Strong FCS showing in GQ's Douchiest Colleges

    Apparently the staff at GQ decided to make a list of the 10 Douchiest Colleges in the US. The FCS ended up having a few show up:

    #8 Delaware - Douchy because of, umm, Asians and straight people apparently?

    #3 Yale - Douchy because of presidential aspirations, secret societies, and bisexual people.

    #1 Cornell - Douchy because of being under-appreciated.

    The whole thing is sort of goofy and not very well thought out, but here's the link if you want to experience the madness:

    I actually thought it was pretty good. I loved Cornell's "bubble thought" and Penn State at #2 is priceless.

    I just sent that list to my better half who is a Cornell alum. She asked me what "douchiest" meant.

    Pretty much any Ivy League school selected would have been fine by me.

    My ranking of Ivy Douchiness (as derived from the GQ benchmarks):

    1. Harvard
    2. Brown
    3. Columbia
    4. Yale
    5. Princeton
    6. Penn
    7. Cornell
    8. Dartmouth

    Feel free to comment. I suspect a PL list can't be far behind.

    EDIT: Were Duke an Ivy school, it would be #1 by a clear margin.

    Being a graduate of the class of 2011, I have known many people at all of these schools. 1 and 2 are dead on by a far margin. Although Harvard and Yale are similar to one another in so many ways, the level of "douchiest" definitely favors Harvard.

    Do we dare implement these rankings for the Patriot League? Things could get messy around these parts...

    Cornell was the only one I found funny; it was really hilarious.
