I am an avid watcher of the entire "Real Housewives" franchise. I have tried to limit myself to watching only two of the cities, but something about it makes me come back every time. Here are some of the houswives and their stereotypes, matched up to colleges in Ohio.
Lisa Vanderump: Ohio State University
The Lisa Vanderpump thinks she can do no wrong much like The Ohio State University. Everyone is intimidated by her, and no one will actually call her out. She’s very well-known, and it seems like it takes a lot to become her friend, much like how hard it can be to get into OSU.
Bethenny Frankel: University of Cincinnati
Bethenny Frankel is beautiful and majorly successful. Besides being a housewife, she is also an entrepreneur, author, talk show host and chef. She had a difficult childhood, and before she launched her multimillion dollar company, Skinny Girl, she was struggling to pay for everyday things. Like Bethany, UC also used to not have the best reputation, and now it is a school on everyone’s radar and known for its beautiful campus and one-of-a-kind president.
Tamara Judge: Ohio University
Tamara Judge is a party girl. She is always down to have a good time, and she always knows where the party is at. I’ve also never seen her host a bad party, but besides partying, she doesn’t do much of anything else.
Vicki Gunvalson: University of Dayton
Vicki is a do-it-yourself kind of person. She is very wealthy because of her own success. She is an extremely hard worker, and her career is the most important thing. You never hear a bad thing about Dayton because they are a school focused on innovation, much like Vicki.
Lisa Rinna: Bowling Green State University
Lisa Rinna is kind of just blah. She loves to talk and stir the pot, which gets draining to watch after a while. You know what you’re going to get with Lisa, and there isn’t much to her, much like Bowling Green. BG’s colors are orange and brown, and they have a cemetery in the middle of their campus. They are also located in the middle of nowhere, and you know exactly what you’re going to get when you attend Bowling Green.
Ramona Singer: Kent State University
Ramona Singer doesn’t have the reputation of being very intelligent, rather just completely crazy. She is super quirky, just like a lot of the students at KSU. Ramona is one of those people who is very confident in herself, but everyone else still questions her.
Melissa Gorga: University of Toledo
Melissa is constantly getting mixed up with her sister in law Teresa, much like Toledo gets mixed up with Kent State. Toledo is completely different than KSU, so I don’t know why they get mixed up, just like Melissa needs to stop getting compared to her sister-in-law. Melissa is a little bit younger and better looking than Teresa, and not to mention, she hasn’t gone to jail, yet.
Heather Dubrow: Miami University
Heather Dubrow is rich, and there is no question about that. She is stuck up, but also extremely nice. She was the girl in high school who couldn’t wait until college, so she could rush her mom’s sorority. Although she has 17 closets in her house, she is still your best friend because she will tell you exactly what you need to hear.
Luanne de Lesseps: Xavier University
Luanne is a countess, and she will make sure everyone knows that. She thinks she is prestigious, even though she is divorced from the man who made her a countess. Sometimes she is forgotten about, but when mentioned, people know exactly who she is, much like Xavier. In the big picture, Xavier will always be the second best University in Cincinnati, but will never be completely forgotten.
Just like these housewives, every school has their own quirks and drama, but we love each and every one of them for what they are.
