Cornell Avoids GQ's "Douchiest Colleges" List

Thankfully, we were spared the wrath of GQ editors in their first-ever list of America's 25 "douchiest" colleges.

Some of our Ivy peers were not so lucky.

#3 Princeton
Home of: The Eating-Club Douche
Affectations: They invented affectations!
A peek inside: Most Ivy Leaguers try (unconvincingly) not to mention which college they went to. Not at Princeton.
In ten years, will be: Our boss.
Favorite pickup lines: "Hey, didn't I see you at the Cap & Gown Club?" "Hi. My father invaded Cuba."
How to get in: "There is no formula for what makes the best Princeton student. In one year, we may be looking for that talented oboist* to fill out the woodwind section of the orchestra, while another year we may be focused on finding a well-rounded field-hockey player."—cass cliatt, director of media relations
*Seriously, what is it about elite universities and the oboe?
Honorable-mention eating-club institutions: A basketball school in Durham, a university in New Haven, a college in Cambridge.

Harvard was #4, and Duke came in at #2 with Brown at #1.

Sometimes with these lists, I'm not sure whether Cornell is left off because someone actually likes us, or because we just don't come to mind when people think of elite schools.
