Reed College is a place I love and hate, but mostly love. There's so much about this school that is wonderful, and the academics here are bar none. While that may be the case, I'm not going to say there aren't certain negatives. The social scene here is odd, and the Reedie identity is not one that all fit or -want- to fit, and it can be more often what drives people away. Having said that, I don't exactly fit in, but there are so many people here I get along with fantastically—types of people you would be unlikely to find at other schools. The nerd level here is sky-high, but also adorably so, and for as many people who are socially inept, there are those who are socially competent. If you research at all about Reed, you'll hear about it being in the prettiest part of Portland (No, it doesn't rain as much as people say) and you'll hear about the Honor Principle. It's a thing of beauty, truly, and I've yet to hear of an institution with a principle quite like it.

Truly, Reed is a college that is far too unique to understand through words. I can throw statistics at you that you've already read, I can tell you about the drug scene (over-exaggerated by the media—refer to Honor Principle) or the suicides (Sad, and I'm not going to say it isn't, but it's stressful here and we tend to attract somewhat unstable sorts. We're trying to figure out how to help people more successfully); however I can also tell you about how, really, if you go up to anyone and talk to them, they will smile and gladly sit down and talk with you. I can even tell you about Renn Fayre, the best end-of-the-year bash ever, or the giant inflatable bouncy houses we have on the Quad, or the surprisingly awesome PE classes we're required to take six of.

Take a hint from me: Be interested and visit—there's nothing like being at Reed and there's no better way to learn about this stressful utopia than to visit and stay a night. So do it! If it's the place for you, you'll know and you will love Reed to such an incredible extent.
