Wesleyan University OTR: Interested in Religion? Nursing? Fashion? Indiana? Then Wesleyan is the College for You!

Interested in Religion? Nursing? Fashion? Indiana? Then Wesleyan is the College for You!

See? You can be a fashionable religious nurse!

It seems like everything Google touches turns to gold--except its horribly mismatched ads for the Wesleyan OTR blog. Maybe it's because, like the rest of the country, Google has no idea what Wesleyan University is. (It's an all girls school in Indiana, right?)

Consider a few recent ads:

• Churches Wesleyan
Find Churches Wesleyan in Local Directory!
www.usdirectory.com

Sorry Google, nobody here is Methodist anymore.

• Could You Be a Nurse?
Take this Quiz to Find Out if Nursing is the Career For You!
www.LearnAndBecome.com

First of all, Wesleyan is not an all girls school; second, not all gays want to be nurses; and third, both of these are based on stereotypes anyway. Think outside the box, Google--Wesleyan doesn't even have a nursing school.

• Indiana Wesleyan U.

The Wesleyan that this blog covers is in Connecticut. And no, it's not called Connecticut Wesleyan.

• Indiana Wesleyan Univer.
Request free information from the Indiana Wesleyan University!
www.CollegeSurfing.com

This Wesleyan is not in Indiana. Or Kentucky. Or Ohio. Or Illinois. Or Iowa.

• Fashion

Unless this is a hipster fashion site, you've got the wrong school, Google. Now take your capitalism elsewhere and leave the commies alone.

Haha...it is funny how bitter the poster from Wesleyan seems. The best one is the one from Ohio! Ohio Wesleyan simply rules! Posted 01/28/2008 7:37 PMReply

better for what? for drug-addicted kids who read beat generation writers and are weird for the sake of being weird...true, for that it is the better college. OWU is a lot more diverse especially internationally than Wesleyan in Connecticut...but many of its departments are even better than Connecticut's Wesleyan...classics, english, CS Posted 05/18/2008 2:14 PMReply

that'a just factually incorrect. Wesleyan university is one of the top schools in the country. Ohio wesleyan is not even considered a particularly good school. I agree the Wesleyan University has a fair amount of drug use and hipsters, but unfortunately it's not really that weird anymore. ( im being serious, i wish it was "weirder", kinda) Posted 09/07/2008 12:09 AMReply
