Johnson State College

Definition

A small Vermont college in the middle of nowhere with around 2,000 students populated by skaters, snowboarders, drama kids, and stoners. The campus is gorgeous but the food (affectionately called Shwag) will wreck your digestive system until you build immunity.

Example Usage

I went to Johnson State College and loved the mountains, but Shwag gave me shwoop for my entire freshman year.
