Tulane University of Louisiana Top Questions

A lot of people see us as a Jewish school (Jewlane) or a party school (I've heard that our unofficial motto is "First we out think you, then we out drink you.").

Upper-middle Class, Jewish, drunks. ...It fits pretty darn well, really.

That everyone is Jewish, fratty and that we all party 6 nights a week.

That we party/drink a lot. That there are a lot of rich Jewish people.

Students who are smart but lazy, wealthy outsiders (not originally from NOLA) who terrorize uptown New Orleans and whatever bar they may be visiting that night.

Tulane is full of rich, snobby, preppy kids who do not mix well with the diverse New Orleans community.

That the student body is comprised of New England wealthy preps (Jewlane, anyone?) and down-South football players and scholarship kids. Either way, all of Tulane loves to party, drink, and still try to keep up their grades.

Common stereotypes about Tulane students are that they are Jewish, rich, and from the Northeast. Another big stereotype is that students are big time drinkers.

That all students are short, spoiled, jewish Yankees who live off of their daddy's money and credit cards and don't care at all about school or people. In addition, they all went to boarding school for high school and are only in New Orleans to drink and party.

Drinking: Of course it exists, we live in the only city in the country where public intoxication is expected, not rejected. Football: Our team sucks, hate to say it. I come from Texas and it is a bit of a disappointment. Baseball: This would be the sport in which we excell. Mardi Gras: The time of your life.
