Academics

At Allegheny College, academics are first priority. Classes can become quite competitive, but that doesn’t keep students from working together. Schoolwork often becomes a kind of social event, where people get together to study, work on homework, or proofread papers.

Guys & Girls

At Allegheny, there is a good mix of male and female students. We’re actually pretty representative of the general population. There are some very attractive people and some very unattractive people, but all in all, most of the students are just plain average when it comes to looks. There’s also a pretty even mix of guys and girls, so it’s not like either sex has a harder time finding someone. Another great aspect of Allegheny is the mix of lifestyles. There are hippies, jocks, preppy people, nerds, punks,...

Athletics

Most of the varsity sports teams at Allegheny are competitive in their division. Much of the student body, however, isn’t even aware of that. Intramural sports are a little more popular, but as a whole, Allegheny is just not a big sports college. Other than the small groups of people who would consider themselves Gator fans, no one is going to confuse them with the University of Florida Gator fans from Gainesville anytime soon.

Sports nuts on campus are usually satisfied with the amount of activity in the...
