&lt;p&gt;September is here!  Well, sort of.  Though the month schools open their doors to students has begun, it&#39;s still the week before Labor Day, which most people in the working world call &quot;summer&#39;s last hoorah,&quot; a/k/a when everyone is on vacation.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At Vault, however, we&#39;re gearing up to release a number of new education guides for the admissions season, including the &lt;i&gt;Law School Buzz Book&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Business School Buzz Book&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Vault Guide to Top Internships&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Vault/CGSM Guide to Business School Diversity&lt;/i&gt; and more.  Which means we&#39;re all here, and much too busy to go on holiday--or think of original blog posts.  Luckily for the education team, there have been lots of lists and rankings released in the wake of the &lt;i&gt;U.S. News&lt;/i&gt; America&#39;s Best Colleges list for us to write about.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One such list is by &lt;i&gt;GQ&lt;/i&gt;, called &quot;America&#39;s 25 Douchiest Colleges.&quot;  The ranking is a joke, written to poke fun of top schools and their stereotypes.  Still, it can be valuable to know what the reputations are for different schools and their students.  Though you shouldn&#39;t let stereotypes determine where you decide to matriculate, they can give you a sense for the prominent personality on campus.  Plus if you, like me, are an alumna of one of the top 25, you can laugh at how dead-on GQ&#39;s highlights are, or aren&#39;t.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;GQ: America&#39;s 25 Douchiest Colleges&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Brown University&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Affectations:&lt;/b&gt;  A belief that grades, majors, and course requirements are just another form of cultural hegemony; using the word &lt;i&gt;hegemony&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;li&gt;Duke University&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Affectations: &lt;/b&gt;  Pressed oxford; Goldman Sachs summer-internship tote; always ending the party by taking your shirt off and wrestling a guy named Schmitty. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;li&gt;Princeton University&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;A peek inside: &lt;/b&gt;  Most Ivy Leaguers try (unconvincingly) not to mention which college they went to.  Not at Princeton. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;li&gt;Harvard University&lt;li&gt;Deep Springs College&lt;li&gt;Bob Jones University&lt;li&gt;Amherst College&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Affectations: &lt;/b&gt; Quiet sense of superiority; intense desire to be surrounded by 1,700 people almost exactly like you; Choate soccer jacket. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rollins College&lt;li&gt;Charter College, Wasilla&lt;li&gt;University of Colorado-Boulder&lt;li&gt;New York University&lt;li&gt;University of Phoenix&lt;li&gt;University of Georgia&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Prized possession: &lt;/b&gt; White bulldog with notarized papers proving a bloodline to Uga IV. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;li&gt;Arizona State University&lt;li&gt;University of Notre Dame&lt;li&gt;University of Southern California&lt;li&gt;University of Chicago&lt;li&gt;Boston University&lt;li&gt;Ohio State University&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Overheard at Buckeye career-building workshop: &lt;/b&gt; &quot;You can put &#39;Won a national championship&#39; on a resume, right?&quot; &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;li&gt;Morehouse College&lt;li&gt;Trinity College&lt;li&gt;Vassar College&lt;li&gt;Randolph-Macon College&lt;li&gt;University of Texas at Austin&lt;li&gt;University of Virginia&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Overheard in the bleachers:&lt;/b&gt;  &quot;Well, at least our football players actually go to class and--hey, Dylan, this mint julep is &lt;i&gt;outstanding&lt;/i&gt;.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
