[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bowdoin’s campus is tiny and we felt it was claustrophobic. Felt the same way about Amherst. Williams and Middlebury felt like they were the right size, especially considering their rural locations.[/quote]

[b]That’s so funny because my UMD alum husband who was very anti-slac loved Bowdoin when we visited and thought it felt much larger than it was. [/b]

Also, surprised no one has mentioned the food 😆 When you visit Bowdoin, they offer you free dining hall meals for a reason. [/quote]

While I recognize that perceptions often differ among individuals, it is difficult to accept that anyone found Bowdoin College's campus large (and I do understand that what you wrote was relative = larger than expected). I wonder if your husband meant less congested than expected. Very understandable if coming from a highly populated urban or suburban area as Bowdoin's campus does offer students a good bit of open space.

Bowdoin College has almost 120 buildings on 207 to 215 acres of land. Bowdoin has about 1,900 students. For those who prefer a small community, Bowdoin College might be an outstanding option to consider.[/quote]

Yes, but of those 120 buildings, how many are larger than a house? Maybe 30-40?[/quote]
