a current student here
The campus is located near a local town allowing students to have access to shops and food stores. The on-campus cafeteria may not always live up to each student's standards, but with a new deli down the block, it does not become much of a problem. The weather is not the greatest, but since it is a commuter school, most student's are used to the weather before attending classes. There are many clubs and activities on campus and off, allowing the student to engross his or herself into the college community.
