My personal preference is that I just go to college, regardless of the town area. I actually like the quaint area because of the mix of brand name and mom and pop shops. For an outsider, you might have to go about an hours way for some entertainment but I like the area. The campus is beautiful and the conservatory is just so fitted into life here. The dorms are cool and I loved Kolman Hall.

I love the people and the campus is really nice, however Appleton isn't a very fun city. Its hard to get around if you don't have a car. I'm from Seattle so the weather in both summer and winter is unpleasant.

The atmosphere is perfect. There are many places one can go if they seek friendly encounters or simple solitude. Everything is within one's grasp; literally everything is within a comfortable walking distance. The people are very friendly and intellectual, but not in competitive manner like larger schools. Professors really invest time into their students which enhances understanding and offers students reliable references for the future.

It would be nice being away from home and adventuring in a different city.

A huge turn off is the weather. Lawrence is right on a river so the wind chill is crazy. That being said, Appleton is a fun town. Personally I think its really cool that such a small town gets Broadway tours just like a big city.
