No. This campus gets dead because alot of people come from NY and since bridgeports on the metronorth line, and theres nothing to do in ct, they go home every weekend. theres only 2 parties allowed per month on campus so you will find yourself spending club money to party and have fun. you will get bored because theres 2 malls available through the bus: Trumbull and Milford. Trumbull is a 20+ min bus ride and that malls okay while Milford is better but takes an HOUR to get there. it gets boring to keep going to the mall. On campus activities are OK even if you get involved in alot its like...ugh. still lame

i had a great time at this school. i found a home away from home there. there is a huge variety of clubs, organizations, and extracurricular activities available to choose from. if you get out your dorm room and get involved you won't have a dull moment. they also have great parties for the party lovers.

College is what you make it. How you manage your time between school work, partying, working, or any extra-curricular activities depends on if you have any fun or enjoy being there. The school has many events that goes on during the week and weekend to help entertain the students. Students can also plan their own events.
