Stereotypes Were Created About Students rom Coast To Coast What' laid hark. airy, and com© in all colors7 People from th© west roast1 What's fresh , furry, and phly? People from the east coast ... or at least these were the storeotypes which had become associated with those groups of people California and New York represented two of the most diverse extremes on campus.
