This place has a tendancy to dampen your spirits. It's hott for the first few weeks- and many dorms don't have air conditioning; but everyone always talks about how much snow it gets in the winter. And it does. The sky is overcast most of the time. All of the buildings are brick, and you will walk the same path everyday to the academic side of campus, everything is clustered together for the most part, with the residence halls clustered a quarter mile away. Mostly guys, nerdy ones at that. The few girls who are here are art students- take from that what you may. What little joy there is on campus groups is exerted through the 'we're in this together' factor. The hockey is exceptional- until we go to D-I 06-07. The required courses are a little absurd (like psychology for CS majors); but it's state required, it'll be the same accross the board. The teachers can't teach, and have horrible accents. Again, this is a common problem with many schools; no one grows up to be a professor in America, so they import.
