Holy Cross is a very small school and consequently each student gets a lot of attention. You are not treated as a number. Classes are small and some classes are only a few students. There are no TAs. You really get to know the professor and there is lots of opportunity for dialgue with professors. Because it is so small, you really get to know people well and form strong relationships. It is difficult to be lost in this tight knit community. There is a lot of career driven kids who are very focused on academics but also polite and respectful for the most part. The students have a lot of pride in the school and there is a lot of school spirit especially with respect to the men's basketball team. Some of my best memories are at exciting games at the Hart Center and NCAA appearances. I still attend many games as an alumnus and follow the teams like a maniac. Holy Cross is unusual in that there student athletes are academically representative of the school. The top football quarteback from the 90s is now a surgeon. A football halfback who was in my class is now an actuary. The top basketball player my year is now a VP of a major Boston realtor.
