Very dangerous. The guys here are jerks and treat you like crap. All the others are gay. Their art program is a joke and it is SOOOO boring on campus year round. Go ANYWHERE else.

Super Brilliant
"Going to Hampshire is probably the worst decision I have ever made, and my years here have been far and away the worst years of my life. I have never felt as deeply let down as I have during my time here. There are a few good professors (about a third of them, I would say), but that leaves two-thirds who are lazy or incompetent. Every semester I have been saddled with classes taught by nitwits who don't even seem to be doing their own reading. Class is frequently boring and surprisingly awkward as a result. Many of the teachers have political views that can drive you insane. Hampshire is probably one of the last strong bastions of political correctness in the nation. They continuously trivialize serious oppression by absurd theorizing."This is sooo true. This and you will make NO FRIENDS. Everyone hates it here and stays in thier room but is too scared/lazy to transfer.

Quite Bright
Hampshire is a fantastic school so long as you have the motivation to take initiative in your own education. This school will only benefit you if you can drive yourself to seek out available resources and work with what is there (which is a considerable amount when you include the Five College Consortium). Hampshire is not for everyone, but it has the potential to work for a lot of unique educational desires.
