[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised about Hopkins. The dorms are pretty 80s, I agree. Renovated now with AC and clean but drab. Not much they can do but start over and they're not that bad. The apartment style ones way nicer but less social.

But the rest of Hopkins? The gym? The new science building? The interiors of the old buildings are so well done. The new student union is going to be amazing. I feel like that campus drips with Bloomberg money.

Ok, I was a bit harsh. I thought the campus as a whole was nice, but the food was not good. Hopefully DC by now has found some food to eat for bfast, lunch, and dinner. Considering we took a cross country flight out there, I began to think is it really worth it $90K for this. Today we got an email that one of the dorms has bedbugs and they're helping the kids wash everything... thank goodness DC is in another building. I feel like the quality of college life has stated the same but the cost has outpaced inflation.

I went to a women's college, and yeah, it was very nice and worth every penny. [/quote]
Out of all the tours we went on, the women's colleges were easily the best quality. The dorm life at Scripps and Smith made me jealous at parts of the tour![/quote]

I can attest that both Smith and Scripps have great housing and beautiful campuses. I think Scripps beats Smith in the food department though.[/quote]
