Stereotypes are gay and smell funny

By Sarah Hodges

The wall of stereotypes that went up between Davis library and the union last week was supposed to provide a learning experience to the campus community. Instead, many people walked away from the display feeling embittered and a little sad.

“None of the stereotypes up on the wall could be applied to me,” said sophomore Jane Smith. “I felt so left out. I mean, what about your average, brunette, white bread American girl?

He added, “my roommate’s pre-med. I wonder if he’s Asian…”
