What are your general comments?

"My interviewers were great.. I would consider attending just b/c they were so great. But realistically, I would never go there. The students act as if its the best school in teh world and are sort of tunnel vision. The students are not really that friendly. Mhh didn't get a good impression. Maybe people drink all day since there's not much to do in a small town, who knows? People seem to love the town but I'm not sure what's so great about it. " Report Response
