Basically an extension of the nearby high schools (Elder, Moeller, and St Xavier), it is located on outskirts of the arm pit city of Cincinnati, Ohio. They have a good basketball team some years and that is the only reason that anyone living outside the Cincinnati metro area may have heard of the school. The students there know that it isn't a party school but promise that it is still "fun"...Don't blink on your visit here or you might miss the majority of the tour.
Xavier University Student 1: Hey bro, do you feel like going up to the University of Dayton to party this weekend?
Xavier University Student 2: Nah, let's just break out the Monopoly board again.
Xavier University Student 1: Great idea dudester!

A public university located in the small town of Oxford, Ohio, Miami University is a fairly large school that is often confused with University of Miami (located near the Florida city). Its athletic teams are known as the Redhawks and play in the Mid-American Conference, or MAC. A very high proportion of the student body belongs to a fraternity or sorority, which is somewhat unusual amongst Midwestern universities.
Miami supporters like to claim that it's a public ivy, and while there is a credited list of public ivies, it's fairly large and includes Ohio State University among dozens of others. Miami supporters also like to claim that Miami is the best public university in the state of Ohio; however, OSU is much better-known and consistently ranks above it in practically every college ranking publication. Most people outside of academia or the state of Ohio consistently confuse this school with the one in Florida.
Despite the fact that Miami University is a public, i.e. comparatively cheap, university in a reasonably diverse state, its student body is unusually white and wealthy. Miami University is an above-average university, nobody can reasonably dispute this. However, its superiority complex is ridiculous; there's nothing wrong with being the second-best public school in one of the most populated states in the country.
High School Senior 1: I'm pretty excited, I just got into Miami University!
High School Senior 2: Cool, I'm going to OSU in the fall.
HSS1: Dude, that sucks! I'll be going to a public ivy whooo!!!!
HSS2: WTF does that mean?
HSS1: That means it's the best school outside of Yale, MIT, Stanford, and Duke, dudebra!
HSS2: You realize that the ivy league is a sports conference; MIT, Stanford, and Duke are not in it, right?
HSS1: Look nerdbra, look at the college rankings! You're just jealous!
HSS2: I just looked up the US News and World Report. OSU: 53. Miami: 77.
HSS1: Look nerdbra, you're just jealous that you won't get to party with my frat bros, bra!
HSS2: This is getting ridiculous. I'm gonna go study for my AP test.
HSS1: Nerd!!!!!

The real SU; a school filled with massive school pride and academics that are often overlooked by snobby kids who think you're only getting a good education if you're paying out your butthole for it. They give financial aid to almost everyone and are one of the only schools on the east coast to offer a specific career driven education. SU also has one of the highest job placement percentages within 6 months of graduation: around 97%, or 100% for medical technology majors.
A: I went to Stevenson University for my first two years but then I transferred to Johns Hopkins. I ended up transferring back for my last year.
B: Hopkins is a great University, pretentious or not.
A: It is on paper but the education and career focus here was way better, trust me.

Noun; A college where students go to sit in the student section of Rupp Arena and cheer on a basketball team. With the most national championships, the school also has the most amount of unsuccessful post graduates in the nation. Their pride doesn't come from their academics, just their sports teams - which they fund through their tuition and scholarships. A waste of money, as far as investments go, academically. Even the straight guys suck dick at this institution. Recently, they have ran under budget commercials promoting the college that are entitled "See Blue". They cut funding so that they could keep more of their fuck up students money.

Tubby: I loved my salary at UK.

That with which homo sapiens will be reunited via what has commenced as the internet. Universal Consciousness, by definition, has no corporeal aspect other than that which it enjoys having been imbued into intelligent, i.e.consious, organisms -- one of which is homo sapiens. Other, perhaps superior, examples include marine mammals, especially porpoises and dolphins with high brain mass / convolution depth and frequency to body mass ratio. But how,for now anyway, can we speak for them? We can't. So, back to the "big uplink"....
Allow me to abbreviate Universal Consciousness... god. OK... god can't feel a thing. In the past, the role of homo sapiens in bringing some tactile and, whoa, much other, input to god has been popularly, an understatement, interpreted in such terms as "...he gave his only begotten son..." Whatever.
In reality, it is simpler and much less emotional than that: God can't feel... so we're here to feel and report back. Enough with the only begotten son crap, in my opinion.
So the Big Uplink has been under way for ages... only without the link having yet formed. Enter: the internet.
Bottom line: eventually all human tactile, corporeal, emotional, intellectual, and perceived spiritual experience is made knowable for god through that which has started out as digital technology. Eventually, bodies become obsolete. Eventually, all physical experience from chidbirth -- from both points of view -- through death -- from a virtually infinite number of points of view -- is translated into 1's and 0's, or wherever digital leads... and god -- ready for this? -- GETS IT. There's your "meaning of life", eh?
Anybody have an explanation more intuitively satisfying? What else could we be doing here? Let's here it...
God cannot feel... that is why we are here... and that is what we, as a species, have to report back. Corporeal to pure intelligence... it starts with the 'net. Eventually it's all back to Clear Light.

Also known as Temple University. Located in the ghetto of Philadelphia, TU's students are referred to as "typical underachievers".
Avoid Thug University when traveling through Philadelphia.
