People need to stop blindly bashing this place. It went on when I was there, and I see it here as well. The school isn't the problem, its the concept, and its not exclusive to this school by any means. Like most small private schools, the majority of the students seem to be there to kill time (myself included) as opposed to getting an education.

A lot of people have mentioned the drug use. Anybody that thinks its only an issue here is kidding themselves, its a problem everywhere. Some professors were approachable and knowledgeable, only a few seemed clueless. Dorms weren't bad at all, but another review was spot on saying most of the RA's are atheletes in it for the that are never around. Location is where the lack of fraternities and campus activities is made up for. Theres plenty of other things to do in Boston which is a 10 minute T ride away. The one thing I will say is awful is the accounts department. They screwed up almost every time I talked to them, trying to tell me I owed a few thousand more than I did. Definitely more expensive than it should be here, but again, not as bad as other schools in the area that are a bit bigger.

Like most things in life, this school is what you make of it. It has a decent amount of both ups and downs, making it average at best, but average at worst.
