ANSWERS

Mostly A: Outdoorsy

You spend your afternoons slacklining by Lyman, at the rock wall or working at the OP. If you haven’t abandoned the Whitman bubble for the wilderness on the weekend, you’re probably at a geo party drinking cheap beer out of a mason jar before returning home to sleep on your porch hammock.

Mostly B: Hipster

You can be seen sporting an androgynous hairstyle, brightly colored skinny jeans, patterned button-down shirts and thick-rimmed black glasses, even if you don’t have a prescription. Maybe you stole them from the midnight premiere of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2” in 3D, even if you won’t admit to having been there.

Mostly C: Library Hermit

You get high off of telling your friends that your homework sucks more and casually dropping your grades into conversation. If you sleep at all, it’s a power nap in front of the fire in the quiet room rather than in your own bed. It’s been so long since you’ve seen the sun you look like RPatz in Twilight, and you don’t know what day it is.

Mostly D: Bro

You spend at least half an hour styling your hair and selecting the right pieces of your designer wardrobe to achieve that “I just rolled out of bed looking like this” effect. You’re frequently overheard in the library trying to piece together the totally awesome time you’re sure you had last night. You know youth is fleeting, but drunken pacts with your fellow bros will last a lifetime.

Mostly E: Varsity Athlete

You wake up with the sun, eat a hearty breakfast and get to morning practice all before the library hermits and bros (for different reasons) crawl home. You’re easily identified by the ice Saran-Wrapped to various body parts and your respective team’s signature T-shirt and/or sweat pants. Your social sphere is more than likely exclusively limited to other varsity athletes.
