School Spirit

Although students don’t want to admit it, they are proud that they got into Babson. They are also swollen with pride after they finish their first year at Babson. In-classroom competition is where the spirit really kicks in. There, the overconfident students add fun and interesting dynamics to some of the less-entertaining classes. Finance and Accounting Majors feel exceptionally special to be part of Babson’s curriculum. That is actually true, because these majors regard themselves as tougher and smarter than all other majors. Babson clothing and gifts are also seen all over campus, showing that students are proud to be at Babson and like to purchase these products. These things are even said to be the highest-margin goods at the Babson Bookstore.

Although sports events are not too populated, they are recognized by faculty and the student body through online posting on the Athletics Web site. When a team wins a championship, the news travels fast and mostly everyone knows the game score. School spirit at this school is a bit underrated because of the poor sports attendance, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that students don’t care for school spirit. They are just trying to manage their time better.
