Who said economists are dull? Finance students are the most promiscuous on campus
Poll shows economics undergraduates have had nearly five sexual partners each at university

More 'glamorous' subjects like art and media studies come near bottom of 'sex' table
Survey also shows that study is rated as far more important by students than sex

They are traditionally seen as being among the most hardworking and conscientious of students - perhaps even a little dull.
So it might come as a surprise that economics undergraduates have been found to be the most promiscuous students on campus.

A survey of 4,656 undergraduates found that economics students had nearly five sexual partners since starting university, compared to less than two for those studying environmental science.


The study, conducted by the StudentBeans.com website, found that undergraduates studying economics had 4.88 sexual partners since starting university, with the next most promiscuous students studying social work, community care and counselling (4.7 partners).

5 partners is promisquous......things have really changed since I was in college.

DS1 is junior studying finance (headline says finance, article says economics)
DS2 is freshman in Business School, is taking economics now, probably going to accounting.

Well no wonder they don't say much when I ask them what's going on!

They both have steady girlfriends though, junior has super high GPA and freshman seems to be doing ok

Accouting supposedly is very frustrating and boring (not to me)

I guess the kids are just getting those frustrations out....

Better than drinking like the fish at the athletic frat house

Is it economics students or finance? They aren't the same thing.

And as a finance student..um yeah. It's not the nerdiness, it's that the women think you're going to be a rich businessman some day and give it up.

Or perhaps it's just that the finance students are more likely to be able to count. We do have to take some math classes.

I don't understand the .8 and .7... does that mean that partner couldn't... uhhhh... complete the assignment?

MM- some of the partners like "little people" count as like 0.5 people and suff (depending on how tall they are and stuff)

where as big people (599lbs like you and stuff) count as like 2.5 people and stuff (depending on size/ weight again)

that's how you get the decimals.

[The Walk of the Penguin Mich]

There is no difference between 4.7 partners and 4.44 in the top 5.

5 partners in college is promiscuous?

I guess it is if you don't believe in premarital sex...
