Mary Washington College is an excellent value for youe money, even for out-of-state students. While many people complain there is nothing to do, they just arent trying. With a group f close friends, any night can turn out to be fun and eventful. My first semester was great, and I was suprised at the personal attention I received from faculty. The dorms are not bad at all, and neither is the food. The campus is beautiful, and with bus and train stations within walkin distance of campus, visits to Washington DC are easy and cheap (a bus ticket is $15 round trip). Drugs are not tolerated, and administration cracks down on drinking really hard, but I feel that that is a strength of the school. People are here to learn, and take their academics seriously. During finals week, a seat in the library was almost impossible to come by. Even though people are extremely focused on their work, we know how to have a good time! Overall, first semester has been an amazing experience.
