I love UMass. I do not drink so I do not adhere to the stereotype the University can have. I have found great friends here and love most of my classes. The place is beautiful, and it's great to feel part of a community of college students. Don't expect anyone to hold your hand though. Faculty have a lot of students and while they try to be friendly, sometimes you just have to figure things out for yourself and be independent.
