Not so bright
Franklin Pierce is a great school to go to. If you enjoy being outside a lot then this is the school for you. The school offers numerous outdoor activities that you can attend very cheaply. Kids always complain that there is nothing to do on campus, but it is because they do not look for anything. If your coming from a busy crowded area Pierce is wide open and a very relaxed place to be. You need to like to cold since it gets very cold here, so if you don't ski you should learn. The only bad thing is the food sucks.

The class sizes are great. No more than 20 -25 kids per class except for lectures, but all the teachers know who you are. The one on one time with the teachers is great. It is not hard to get in touch with them if you have a question. Class work is not too hard, but that also depends what classes you are taking.

Over all if you like an easy going area and meeting very chill people pierce the place.

First of all let me say that this school is just terrible. I mean just look at the name. Franklin Pierce. He is usually ranked among the worst presidents in history and that perfectly describes this school. The students only care about themselves. The faculty doesn't seem to realize there is a world outside of their little mountain college. I was really excited to attend college but this place really let me down. Sodexo makes the food( also makes prison food) and it is just awful and makes you have to..well you know. Campus safety is a joke and there is nothing to do on campus except drink which everyone seems to do. Also the school is way too expensive for what you are getting. The dorms are nothing special and upper classmen break in and throw up in the bathrooms and turn on fire alarms which shows what assholes they are. The first week on campus there were already freshmen getting arrested and taken to the hospital because of the drinking. How pathetic is that? You should be able to know how much you can handle. The only notable building is the bubble which gets old fast. The students are close minded and have clicks. For a liberal arts school they are pretty tight assed which makes no sense to me but whatever. After orientation you are left to figure your shit out. Good luck if you go here because I don't advise it along with most other commenters here. I hope this might help someone. I really have nothing good to say. Fuck this school.

this place sucks. please do not go here if you are looking for a good school. if all you want to do is drink all day and smoke pot than come here but most likely you are reading this review because you are trying to find a good school. the academics seemed alright but the people here really make the school what it is. good luck finding friends if you don't like drinking or smoking or if you just don't fit in. the food sucks. campus safety sucks. i would really advise you to go elsewhere but if you do go here don't say you weren't warned.
