Hip and comfortable at Acadia and Mount A.

Atlantic Canada doesn’t have a single Urban Outfitters so visitors may be surprised to see the hipster aesthetic alive and well in Wolfville, N.S. and Sackville, N.B. Unless, that is, they realize at least half of students at Acadia and Mount Allison are from out-of-province. Still, as you can see from this Campus Style gallery, many east coasters prefer comfort to conformity. Photographer Andrew Tolson shot these while working on the upcoming 2014 Maclean’s University Rankings.
