The Typical Student Emerson is an expression-oriented school. It focuses on artis- tic and creative communication. Students are encouraged to be unique and to develop themselves fully. “I don’t think there is such a thing as a typical student at Emerson,” says senior Ellyn Evans. According to Vivian Geary, “That’s the point, isn’t it?” Be- cause Emerson is a relatively small school, students have more of a chance to be an individual. Lisa Margeson, a senior in Communication Studies says, “There is no typical student. At large universities, there are classes of typical students, but not here.” Students express their individuality through their opinions, the activities they are involved in and especially through the way they dress. Everyone has their own look, but most can fit in some sort of category. There are students who dress in black from head to toe, or wear second hand or vintage clothes they bought while “thrifting”. ■ “The Emerson color should be black instead of purple gold, because everyone wears it so much,” says sophomore Kristen Torgen. There are also students who prefer the casual look, baggy sweaters faded ripped jeans. “High top sneakers are typical for women. So are oversized shirts, running pants and chains for belts,” says Vivian Geary. Transfer sophomore Alison Guiffra says, “There are some students who have the total L.L. Bean look and some who are half dead-head, half punker. There’s everything from K-mart to Nieman-Marcus. I guess it’s the city.” “When it comes to clothes at Emerson, anything goes,” says Ellyn Evans. As for activities, “I’d say most students are in at least one organization, even if it’s one of the radio stations or E.I.V.,” says Lisa Margeson. Lisa also says, “The typical student is not into writing papers and likes to procrastinate.” “A typical Emerson student misses one class a week because of meetings or a late night at Crossroads or the Rat,” says Vivian Geary. “They also cram in a big way to get things done.” “To me,” says freshman Lynne Palombo, “a typical student is trendy and rebellious and looking for an identity.” 26
