a friend of mine sent me this article, and its a list of the "top ten most hipster campuses" across the country. The schools on the list aren't particularly surprising, but what struck me was how encompassing their standards of hipsterdom are--so broad that practically anyone can be considered a hipster. Which only confirms my belief that of all the sub-cultures we studied, hipsterdom isn't sub at all. Hipsters are popularly defined by their anti-conformist nature, but does listening to the radio or wearing flannel or being interested in art really count as non-conformist? My father begs to disagree.
