[quote=Anonymous]I'm a late 2000's grad. It is a beautiful campus. That's always been the case and probably always will be. I always appreciated the Quaker values. It's not officially a Quaker school anymore, but I think the values are still there. Simplicity, everyone eats in the same dining hall, you can't tell who has money and who doesn't  (even though some people have A LOT of money.), we all went to the same parties. It was easy to make friends there, and I still have friends I talk to all the time AND I met my husband there.

I do hear that a lot has changed recently, though, especially because of sexual assault and party culture. I think a lot of the open parties we all went to have been shut down due to drinking concerns. I hear that now, instead of the open free parties we used to go to, now a lot of the parties are run by sports teams and are more exclusive. Also, it was a social justice warrior-y place when I was there, and I'm sure it's 10 times worse now (trigger warnings, safe spaces, etc.). [/quote]
