Down to earth kids, but surrounded by farmland and a rust belt economy . [/quote]

Campus is nice. Prettier than we expected. Facilities felt new. All kinds of kids. More mainstream than, say, Oberlin, but didn’t tip to preppy. Walkable to a small downtown. Seemed like a nice place to spend 4 years. [/quote]

It has been a few years since my dd was a student but a few points: 1. The student center is new but many of the dorms are very old. Like ancient. There is a big difference between the newer dorms and the older dorms. Assignments freshmen year are random so you cannot request a dorm. Some people get upset bc everyone pays the same price for very different accommodations. This may have changed as it’s been a few years but my dd’s accommodations were truly terrible. 2. There always seemed to be student protests about something they felt was wrong. 3. Very large LGBTQ population. This isn’t bad - the school is very welcoming in this regard. [/quote]
