Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There is a geeky constituency at UR, seeing that it is a science-intensive school, but there are a fair share of attractive guys. Intellectually, there is a good chance of finding a guy who is not lacking in the brains department. The girls tend to be attractive and very put together, for the most part. They tend to be described in the middle scale of attractiveness. Everyone finds everyone else is friendly, so if nothing else, we all play well with others.

Because it is a school where all the students are on the same level intellectually, you will develop good relationships with people that are long-lasting. The only complaint of students is that both guys and girls tend not to approach others they don’t know, so some maintain the people are unfriendly at UR. However, at parties, people will get friendly and get to know each other better. Whether they talk to you the next time they see you on campus is another matter. There tends to be a flurry in the beginning of the year in terms of hookups and relationships, and it calms down as the school year progresses. Both sides have their share of attractive ones, and if relationships don’t blossom, there’s always the view.

We aren't our stereotype, well not completely

Sure we are all studious kids, (we go to the U of R duh) but we are not all geeks or nerds. Contrary to what some may say, the guys here are nothing to scoff at and there are definitely a lot good looking ones around.

Nerdy but Normal

Everyone has a healthy dose of nerd in them here. Some kids let this get in the way of looks, but most do not. The majority of people here are generally attractive, healthy, and friendly. It is not hard to find people of the opposite, or same, gender to connect with. As a girl, I think the guys are on average more attractive than the girls here.

It's an effort.

There's a few share of cute guys. The problem is that some of them are incredibly socially awkward. I'm sure not all of them are, but I've encountered some pretty awkward guys who act like they've never met people before. You really have to work hard to break the barrier sometimes. You can meet guys at a party and they seem pretty fun and all, it's just a different thing if they decide to talk to you the next day. I suppose my only advice is get involved in the social scene by going to school clubs/parties, be assertive without seeming too creepy, and all the luck you need.

If you’re not into the Greek Scene, there are sports parties off campus, a couple of off-campus frats, and parties in Hill Court and Riverview.

Hookups or Relationships?

At the beginning, there’s a flurry of hookups, though it tends to taper off as the year progresses.
