    I definitely like it a lot more than I thought it would. The orientation groups are the people on your hall, not just a bunch of random strangers, so you get to know the people you're living with pretty well. Everyone I've met is really nice. The biggest downside is the extremely limited amount of washers/dryers - about 2 of each per 80 freshmen.

    The students are friendly, intelligent, and motivated. The campus is gorgeous and absolutely OOZING with history and tradition- you get a sense of that from your first day of orientation. There are clubs for anything you could be interested in, and there's always something randomly fun going on. The Rec Center has great facilities, the food is decent, and everyone has a functioning sense of humor. The whole school experience here is a dream come true.
