One thing to like and appreciate about the University is that the professors are truly and thoroughly well versed in their fields. It’s a 50-50 toss-up which ones are the better, more interesting lecturers, but all of them are generally very knowledgeable and friendly if you approach them for extra help outside class time. This is certainly true for Computer science classes and economics students. Student life is dominated by greek life in my opinion. A lot of people join frats or go to frat-sponsored events, especially as a freshman because they are generally the more fun, upbeat ones. And you’re more likely to have a good time with good music. But aside from Greek life, there are so many clubs it’s honestly great. Everyone can find their clique/group which can be such a plus. Food is not great though, and really depends where you go to eat. Danforth dining (or danfo) is usually the best especially if you’re a freshman, and once you live off-campus, I’d recommend having a mostly declining food plan and otherwise learning to cook for yourself. Also, the gym is alright, try and go early morning or late evening so its not too crowded.
View moreI like the fact that the school is small but not too small to the extent that you meet the same people every day. The Math / Japanese faculty here I have enjoyed very much. Good access to undergraduate research. However, I have not been enjoying introductory / lower CS courses here that much. Also, I would say that the food is good here but can get repetitive over a year, but I assume that’s the same for most schools.
