Marist College is located within of the busy city of Poughkeepsie, New York. One of the main benefits of the location of the campus is that there is always something to do during downtime or on the weekends. Despite having a lot of entertaining places to visit, there are also many historical and educational sites to see. For instance, FDR's presidential library is about a ten minute ride from campus. My history teacher took us on a field trip there, and I gained a new insight on the Great Depression. Marist's Campus is also very beautiful and serene. When I first came to visit the college, I saw how great the campus was and could only hope that the academics were just as great. To my great pleasure, I learned of how highly praised Marist was for their academics and that the professors and advisors were committed to their student's academic and social success while on campus. What is really unique about Marist is that the class sizes are small. This allows for the student and professor to really get to know each other and for the student to gain one on one help from their professor as well.For those who were wondering about campus life, it really isn't that hard to fit in. Almost everyone I met were really friendly and welcoming. As for the dorms, they are your classic dormatories. While the rooms may not be as spacious as we all would like, they are not that bad to live in. Compared to some of my friend's colleges, Marist dorms can instantly appear bigger. Once you get used to sharing one room with a roomate, it doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore!
