Student Responses to Review Topic: Am I Enjoying Being Here

    Bradford is a great town with anything you can ask for. Many people from big cities complain there is nothing to do because they are not used to the small town lifestyle, but compared to where I'm from, this is a city. Anyway, if you sign up for clubs and make some friends there's plenty to keep you busy.

    Bradford is a tiny and rather boring town, but having all my friends on campus helps cure the boredom. There are some things to do in town such as a movie theater, ice skating rink, and bowling alley. I came from a large suburban town, so switching to a small town was a little challenging, however I love being on campus now and have made so many new friends that I will have for forever.

    I have a lot more friends than in high school. I made some of the best friends anyone could ever have. We find ways among our friends to keep busy, like games,human vs. zombies, movies and just hanging out. I love it up here. It helps that i love the snow too!
