脆皮大学生

• Pinyin: cuì pí dà xué shēng
• Hanzi breakdown: 脆皮 (crispy / fragile outer layer) + 大学生 (college student) -> jokingly fragile college student.

Meaning

脆皮大学生 is a self-mocking label for college students who feel physically fragile or easily injured.

It jokes about minor illnesses, weak stamina, and campus-life fatigue, but should stay light and non-shaming. It is often used by students about themselves rather than as a harsh label for others.

2. 期末周一熬夜，脆皮大学生全员告急。 During finals week, after staying up one night, all the fragile uni students are in trouble.
3. 别拿脆皮大学生嘲笑别人身体。 Don't use fragile uni student as a way to mock other people's health.
