About: College rivalry

An Entity of Type: GroupAction101080366, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Pairs of schools, colleges and universities, especially when they are close to each other either geographically or in their areas of specialization, often establish a college rivalry with each other over the years. This rivalry can extend to both academics and athletics, and sometimes even politics, the middle being typically better known to the general public. These schools place an added emphasis on emerging victorious in any event that includes their rival. This may include the creation of a special trophy or other commemoration of the event. While many of these rivalries have arisen spontaneously, some have been created by college officials in efforts to sell more tickets and support their programs.

  • Skolrivalitet innebär mellan två eller flera skolor, ofta i belägna i samma ort eller med likartade program. Ofta polariseras rivaliteten mellan två skolor, och man ignorerar helt andra, likartade skolor. Rivaliteten kan bland annat uttryckas i regelbundna tävlingar , nidvisor, vitsar eller upptåg. (sv)
  • 大學彼此間長年的競爭，通常發生在兩間大學擁有地緣關係或是相同的專業領域時，競爭可以再延伸為學術領域與運動競賽，通常後者較顯為人知。學校通常會特別強調在各種場合與競爭對手時所贏得的勝利；當兩所學校間的體育競爭變的眾所皆知之時，有些學校會舉辦專屬的活動來促銷門票，並且特別贊助相關的活動。 (zh)
