Hampden-Sydney

Hampden-Sydney is an all male school located in southern Virginia. WASPs dominate the rural 500+ acre campus. Men come to HSC to earn an education, but not just any education. An education that prepares each student for leadership and sucess in every sense of the word. Sucess in the financial, social, and athletic realms of life. The atmosphere at HSC has been compared to that of a private Country Club. The major difference between HSC and a Country Club is that the students who pay an enourmous amount of money to attend the school often have little power concerning legal and social affairs in the community. The corrupt board, administration, and faculty use the students to their advantage for their own self interests. This has often been said to be one of the only negative aspects of the community; however, this is a very big negative. Honor and tradition come with the price of a corrupt group of adults in power. If students had more of a voice, this community would be ideal for any WASP of the south east. The party scene is dominated by a variety drugs and alcohol. Women come to the school searching for their future six figure man. The key word here is searching. Good luck women. If this schools corrupt minority would let up just a hair, this would be the ideal community of rich, athletic, honorable, and scholarly gentelmen of the south.
