In fiction, college institutions of higher learning are of often strange places even by the standards of World of Weirdness: the faculty are all Mad Scientists or Incredibly Sadistic Bastards, the buildings are often substandard, haunted and/or highly explosive, and as for the students... Roughly the equivalent of the Elaborate University High in anime; high school settings of this sort are less common in webcomics, but not unknown, and conversely, university settings are relatively rare in anime. This may be a reflection of the different roles these institutions play in U.S. and Japanese cultures, though it may also reflect the target demographics. Not particularly related to Strawman U, though the name may make one think such a thing. |

Though it is only alluded to once, and we never hear about anything that happened there, Ramona Flowers from Scott Pilgrim attended the University of Carolina in the Sky, which must have been...interesting. | |

Community: Greendale, where everyone is accepted! They offer an insane variety of exotic courses, hold annual paintball tournaments, and the Dean loves wearing inappropriate costumes. They once almost gave a dog a degree (she only had it withheld due to library fines), have come within inches of selling the school to Subway on multiple occasions, and made an anus their school flag even after they realized what it was because that's what the students voted for. Oh, and if the Dean scolds anyone, school bylaws state that he owes them three wishes. | |

Unseen University in Discworld, a Wizarding School where maps look like exploded chrysanthemums and are accurate for a few hours, and you're lucky if you leave the library the same shape you entered. And that's before we get to the staff... | |

GURPS Illuminati University takes place in a university that nearly defies description. The Dean of the history department is a Captain Ersatz of the Fourth Doctor, the Botany department is housed in a giant tree, the sample characters include a witch-girl, a cave-man, and a football-playing werewolf, and the favorite sport on campus is moopsball. | |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: Holliday College in the Golden Age of Comics, was a woman's college which went through deans quickly, often had Wonder Woman on campus, had a large sorority with bizarre and very public rituals like having pledges dress as an infant for an entire day or wear other fetishistic gear, had professors which would take students on expeditions to the other side of the world at the drop of a hat, and most of its students were actively involved in tracking down and fighting Axis spies during WWII. | |

Like Mac Hall above, probably semi-autobiographical. There comes a point in an art student's life when some of the more basic classes, like color theory, start to feel like an insult to your intelligence. | |
