When you begin college as a freshman, one of the most exciting aspects of the experience is meeting new people. Trust me, you will want to introduce yourself to as many new faces as possible; that's what your first year is all about.

You'll quickly figure out that here at Santa Clara, most of the student body is unrealistically good-looking. Which is awesome. But just remember, there are personalities attached to those bodies...and not all of them are too attractive. As you navigate your way through freshman year, here are a few types of guys you will meet along the way.

The frat star

You can find this guy on the porch or front yard of a fraternity house drinking a Keystone (or five) and chatting with his bros. Most of his wardrobe consists of button-downs, Polos, Chubbies, Levis jeans, Sperrys, and anything with his letters on it, along with a few colored logo hats (only to be worn backwards) and a pair of Ray Bans.

His hobbies and interests include beer die, beer pong, shotgunning beer, keg stands—really anything that has to do with beer. His favorite phrases are: “Duuuude,” “Broooo,” “This guy doesn’t even pull chicks,” “That’s the move,” “Who do you know here?” and anything that involves the word “aggressive.”

This guy only takes sorority girls to events, and frequently refers to those not involved in Greek life as “f***in’ geeds.” He’s probably only interested in you if you are a.) in his fraternity or b.) a female that he has any chance of hooking up with.

The nice guy

This guy is just the sweetest. He is sensitive, caring, a great listener, and the best friend you could ask for. He frequently puts the needs of others before his own, which often leaves him feeling disappointed or let down. You know you can go to him for anything because he’ll always be there to support you. He will probably develop feelings for you at some point. If only he was a little less emotional, he would be the perfect boyfriend.

The studious guy

You can find him at the library on any given day at any given time. If he’s not doing schoolwork, he’s probably watching a documentary or reading a book. He is super focused on his education and is genuinely interested in his major. He’s not in college to screw around; he’s here to learn. If you’re struggling in a class, he will either a.) tutor you because he doesn’t get much female attention or b.) judge you for being less intelligent than he is.

The artsy guy

This one plays guitar or some other sort of instrument. He is super interested in anything creative—literature, writing, film, art, theater. He is mysterious, yet sensitive; unique, but not weird; not too studious, yet very intellectual. When he gets going about something that interests him, he will not shut-up about it. But you’ll never want to stop him because he’s just so passionate.

The outdoorsy guy

He is always wearing a Patagonia jacket, hiking boots, and a Northface backpack. He’s down for anything that involves nature and adventure—hiking, fishing, camping, rock-climbing, slacklining. This guy is super fit and a healthy-eater. He’s kind of a loner and a wanderer, but always seeking new experiences. If you're into spontaneity, this is your go-to guy.

The “chiller”

Also known as “the stoner.” He smokes daily and his hobbies include playing FIFA and watching sports highlights. This guy isn’t really mean to anyone, because it takes way too much effort to hate someone. He may seem quiet and/or aloof, but he’s a really cool guy with a great sense of humor. He’s not concerned with anyone’s opinion, and he probably spends most of his time with his bros.

The intramural sports champ

This guy most likely peaked when he was the starting quarterback of his high school football team. As a result, he takes intramural sports way too seriously. While the rest of his team is drinking before their game, he is giving himself a pep talk in front of the mirror. He’s not really involved in any other activities on campus, because when he’s not on the field, he’s in the gym training to be the #1 intramural football athlete to ever play the game.

The real athlete

Also referred to as “the D1 athlete,” this dude is the real deal. He was the best of the best in high school, and he prepared relentlessly to make it to the next level. He’s comfortable being in the spotlight and his life revolves around his sport. Though he’s probably a great guy, he won’t interact with you unless you're also an athlete. These guys tend to stick together because they live and breathe their sport.

The well-rounded guy

This guy does everything: he’s in a fraternity, he plays a club sport, he’s taking 20 units, he’s on the school newspaper, he's an Orientation Leader, and he coaches a youth baseball team. He is charismatic and outgoing; everyone loves him. He’s always busy because he literally has no time to waste. He probably has a girlfriend. If not, every girl wants him because not only is he confident and funny, but he also has his shit together.

The perpetually drunk guy

The opposite of Mr. Perfect (see Channing Tatum above). Every time you see this guy, you swear he’s hammered. At a party? He’s yelling belligerently and hitting on every girl in sight. At a basketball game? He’s wearing face paint and starting every chant. In class? He has WAY too much energy to be sober. And that drink in his cup is definitely not water…

There is never a dull moment with this type of guy. Never a sober moment, either. He will probably spend all four years of college having no f***ing clue what’s going on, but he'll somehow stumble his way through to graduation.
