This is not a party college, but I am of the perhaps old-fashioned opinion that college is about education and not about getting trashed every night. There is little to do outside of classes, but the quality of education provided by QC is absolutely first class. I have since attended graduate schools at Harvard and Boston University, and neither schools came close in terms of quality of education. The richest educational experience of my life was at QC.

responseI question this commentator, there is no doubt that there are high qualified professors at queens college , however there are a couple reasons that this review might be admissions or something.

First, she stated she graduated in 1992 when queens college had open admissions . Back then it wasn't that bad but wasn't great either .

Look at how she rated the colleges she gave everything but social life atleast a b. The campus of queens college is small and really isn't an A- compared to a lot of universities. Campus maintenance probably a C . I doubt a lot of the other scores and its important to note that she hasn't stated her major and she graduated in 1992.

It doesn't matter if your old fashioned or not, education is education no one denies that , however queens college especially in 92 has problems and the admistration and friendless in no way is a B , perhaps a c-.

I question her major and I highly doubt the education can be compared to "Harvard University" besides she is trying to compare undergrad v. graduate school. Boston University maybe understable, but queens college is in no way and couldn't be an "ivy league" caliber school especially back in 1992.
