Every college has its own culture and no, I'm not talking about the "exciting and diverse" student life. I'm talking about the real culture on college campuses - the drinking culture. When it comes to Virginia colleges, well, we have an especially unique array of cultures... Disclaimer: This article is based on the popular stereotypes of each of these colleges and is meant to be satirical with no intention of offending any student who attends any of these schools or anyone who is otherwise affiliated with these colleges.

1. Radford University – Tequila
I think it was a no-brainer that RU is tequila because when you pay both RU and Jose Cuervo a visit, you won't remember what you did the night before unless someone tells you. Tequila is no joke when it comes to drinking, and neither is RU.
2. Virginia Tech – Vodka
VT lands itself as vodka for a couple of reasons, the main reason being that there are so many different flavors to choose from with both vodka and VT. The other reason being that when a Hokie drinks vodka, they're like pinatas...all of their insides will be spewing everywhere at some point in the night.
3. University of Virginia - Whiskey
UVA is whiskey for two reasons, both are hard and will make you over confident. There are a select few that can handle them- and we should applaud them.

4. Christopher Newport University – Rum
CNU is rum for two reasons. The first being as stereotypical of a reason as they come, that captains and pirates drink rum. Second, that while both rum and CNU are great and all, you'll get bored very easily and wish you had something stronger.
5. James Madison University – Gin
JMU and gin are both fun and feisty, but potentially a danger to yourself when drunk. They both will leave you saying things like "I'm not drunk, you're drunk."
6. Old Dominion University – Beer
ODU and beer both have two things in common, they can range from either cheap and nasty to expensive and classy but they run like waterfalls at parties.
7. Virginia Commonwealth University – Absinthe
VCU is absinthe for the very real reason that it only takes a little bit to be sucked into a vortex of drunk-ness and when you come out on either side of the vortex you're either hallucinating that you're in a Vincent Van Gogh painting or you're being held hostage in a fur coat.
8. The College of William and Mary - Wine
Just like Radford being Tequila, I think it's a no-brainer that W&M would be wine. I mean come on, both are expensive and conceited all while being able to turn up and turn down simultaneously.
9. Longwood University - Moonshine
Longwood and Moonshine have one thing, and one thing only, in common...they both are in the middle of nowhere.
10. Norfolk State University - Malt Liquor
NSU and Malt Liquor can both get you drunk for about three dollars and make you want to forget where you are.
