Categories Comments Clubs and Activities you can make your own clubs at any time.
Great for these types of students for the students that are the type to study all day there are study groups and study halls always open
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus on campus one of the funnest events is the slip and slide behind rosary hall. its an event thats unusual because it is in the middle of cold weather but to the students its the funnest thing to take our mind of studies for just a quick second.
What to do for fun there's always something on campus to do. if you feel like theres not something that you enjoy on campus than you can make it.
Food and Dining the variety of things you have in the cafeteria is amazing. like i said dominican is like a family you can walk into the cafeteria and the cooks know you by name and what you want.
Dorm Life i love the dorm life. if your in a single your whole hall way can relate to you,and if you have a roommate you can relate to your roommate.
Academic Rigor its not to hard but not to easy. its only hard if you dont look for help
Tips for prospective students my tip for students is go to your professors and you will be successful, and get involved on campus.
In three sentences Domnican college is more than just a school its a second home. at dominican your not just a number your more like a name who all staff want to see succeed. at dominican you will feel welcome the first day you step foot on campus as a freshmen

Categories Comments Campus Safety They are not allowed on the dorm floors - so good luck with that and them helping.
Great for these types of students pot heads
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus tradition is to not acknowledge hazing
What to do for fun Nothing - except drink and smoke pot. There is no football team, the biggest sport on campus is hazing and for most activities you learn about it the day of by e-mail.
Food and Dining small dining hall not much choice. They try to make you something good with what they have. Not like Cortland and Syracuse or a big school
Dorm Life kegs in the dorm and the vents are rigged so the pot smoke goes through the vents
Academic Rigor Depends, if you are a big shot on campus you are golden
Tips for prospective students Do not apply here, this is the worst, even when they finally find that students have been mistreated by other students, nothing happens. You are left with feeling like you have been violated and the school brushes everything under the rug. Even when you have pictures and proof. Do not put yourself in this kind of situation. Run to another school even if you have to take out loans. Dominican is not worth the problems.
In three sentences Worst college ever
