People believing BYU students are nerdier than 20 years back are delusional.

You recognize your argument is entirely anecdotal, right?

Just like the thread he was responding to.

So are arguments that students are nerdier now

No it isn't. Marriott Center attendance is a pretty good indicator

It's Uncle Rico syndrome

As someone who is around BYU students every day, I have to disagree a little.

That's a good point. And it isn't unique to BYU or kids with high GPAs and ACT

No one said this is unique to BYU.

The recurring theme I was responding to is that BYU's students are nerdier

I would argue they are less nerdy...or at least more involved.

They're pretty nerdy. The # of Harry Potter references on campus is shocking.

I was too old for Harry Potter, but you realize most millennials grew up...

compared with # of Star Wars references 30 years ago? It's just pop culture

Harry Potter isn't a measure of nerdiness. It's a measure of age.

kccougar

I think it can be a measure of both. Quidditch competitions on DT field? Uuuugh.

Is that nerdier than medieval swordplay that's been going on for decades?

40 years ago was nerdiest. Wearing slide rules like swords? At least the

No tunnel singing 20 years ago. Q.E.D.

Yes, there was. Sorry. Since 1992.

Kids were doing it in 1990.

I believe you. Maybe it just became sanctioned in '92.

I was there until 1996. If it was happening, it wasn't a thing yet.

I was there before '96, it was a thing.

It's still not "a thing". Unless you consider less than 0.1% of a population

I also consider math a thing.

BYU students are, of a necessity, more well-rounded today. Sure, some get
