Unfortunatley, some freshman come to SLU with an unrealistic view of what life at an elite college is really like. Our University has undergone major shifts in academic orientation over the past several years; when coming to SLU you should expect nothing but excellence in terms of academics.In terms of social life, the lack of civilization causes the student population to turn inward and form the strongest bonds out of any school in the country. Everyone lives on campus, and there is ALWAYS something to do on the weekend, while an abundance of sketchy bars in Canton satisfies one's urge to be off campus. Contrary to what the ignorant freshman wrote before me, school spirit is very strong at school. However, if you have a negative attitude, you will end up having a negative social experience at SLU.SLU has a very athletic student body and the nearby Adirondacks are great for anyone with a penchant for the outdoors. Backcountry skiing, Ice climbing trips, etc. are often offered by the outdoor program, and many warm weather activities in the fall and spring.SLU is a great college, academic excellence and a unique camaraderie between students sets it apart from every other school in the country.
