Location stereotypes


If we look around the faculty we'll see some characteristics different and some in common on the people who study here. And because of the few months that I've been in FACSo I can't point out a lot of stereotypes and I can't tell you about all that we saw last class(I don't really know about all of them).
Two that I've noticed, and the first ones to be shown since my first class, are the urbans and the rurals.
The urbans are all the people who lived in Santiago before the start of the academic year, they are the biggest in number and they usually emphasize the differences with the rurals.
The rurals are the ones who came from outside Santiago (it don't mind if they're from north or south, they're equal), they stand out of the urbans with them local phrases or even local accent and a kind of unknowledge of main streets of Santiago and subway. The urban at first time (this stereotypes dissapear with the pass of the years) involuntarily laugh with the special characteristics of the rural. These differences are totally normal once you start the degree, if the urbans went to a new city, they would be just like a rural guy.
I think that I'll, while I'll be adding up experiences and knowledge of FACSo stuff throughout time, be able to write more details about them.
These most be the first visible stereotypes in daily universitary life.

Are you an urban one?
Another thing why do usually the rurals are mugged? is there a radar or something?
