Their small class sizes allow for better interaction between students and teachers. Also, being a small university, it makes it easier to know people. Technology is state of the art! Library facilities are great. Course curriculum is not very stringent. Parking is always a problem. overall a great experience and highly recommended.
I would definitely recommend the college. The campus is small although there are about 8,000 undergrads. That means getting around campus is quick and easy. The food in the cafeteria isn't the best, but what cafeteria is? There are plenty of local restaurants to order from. The campus is about a 20 minute ride from downtown New Haven full of restaurants, bars, shopping, other colleges, etc. The classes are small and allow for one on one attention from the professor. While the school may be expensive, you cannot get a private college education for much cheaper these days.
it's like a country club for rich kids who occasionally go to class. other than health science majors, it seems like everyone drinks and parties all the time.
