I love Emory. That being said, there are a few things that almost every Emory student has said (or considered saying) at some point. If you hear someone say more than two of these things, you might find yourself talking to an Emory student:
"I wish we had more school spirit."
Because, as we all know, school spirit isn't Emory's number-one forte.
"Bring back Dunkin' Donuts!"
We just miss their iced coffee. And their bagels. And the cheapness. And the short wait. We just basically miss Dunkin' Donuts.
"I hate my meal plan."
Once Emory students exhaust the topic of Dunkin' Donuts, we move on to complaining about the other food options.
"I'm not paying $60,000 a year for cheap toilet paper!"
Yes, Emory students take toilet paper very seriously. As well as student debts.
"I miss Long Island."
Okay, not everyone at Emory is from Long Island. A solid 10 percent are from Manhattan.
"I wish I went to Buckhead more often."
There's nothing wrong with partying in Buckhead, but it wouldn't truly be an Emory quote without an undertone of condescension.
"I hate Mags."
Ohhhh, is that why you end up there three nights a week? Right, keep telling yourself that.
" Football? You mean like soccer?"
No seriously, what is football?
"I'm going to do the birthright trip to Israel this summer."
And if you don't actually do it, at least you said you did.
"What's her name? Oh, I know her!"
The concerning thing about Emory is that, when we applied, we were told it was a "medium-sized school." As it turns out, everyone knows everyone.
