The campus is beautiful, i would change the diversity, i think the size is just right not too big, not too small. I only go to Hamden for groceries and to go out to eat. The administration can be a little bit unsmooth at times, the rooming lottery is a horrible mess and the cafe times are bad. There is alot of school pride at the hockey games.

I would say this school is just about the right size for me personally. It has a beautiful campus which is a main part of its appeal. I feel that for the most part people believe it is a pretty competitive university and the people who attend it are smart. There is not much diversity on this campus although the administration is attempting to change that.

the school is just right. people are impressed when i tell them that i go to QU. they know its a good school and very pretty. I spend most of my time in my dorm with my friends. The biggest controversy on campus i think was whether or not our campus was empathetic or not.

the food is pretty weak, i would change that, its a small-med size school, but its a good size for me, most people love qu, but say it is expensive, between 10 and 15 of my high school graduating class come every year, its has good nearby colleges, its got great lawn, its not really a college town but has a great city with alot of bars nearby, big controversy over the school cancelling may weekend for the first time this year, which i think is bs because i dont think the whole school shud suffer because a couple kids get themselves hurt or in trouble, stuff liek that happens all the time, let us have our fun, our administration is pretty good, getting classes sucks sometimes, but the resistration isnt too bad, the housing lottery sucks right now, and usually sucks, most people get screwed, the car parking lot sucks too, you have to take a shuttle to get your car, but besides those few problems i love my school and i love most of the people here, it s good group of well rounded people that arent snobs, a lot of the girls here dress pretty slutty, b ut alot of the girls here can get away with it, there are so many wonderful experinces i have here, oh yeah that kinda tough with security which is both good and bad, and there not too rough on alcohol theres ways around it, but you have to be really careful about doin any drugs

The best thing about Quinnipiac is the gorgeous campus and the friends I've found here. I'd change the housing lottery, it's one of the most complained about topics. People generally think of QU as a 'good school' when I mention I go there. I know theres a lot of controversy surrounding the fact that May Weekend was taken away. Overall its a really good place to be, my friends and I hike a lot, and overall theres a lot to do here and New Haven.

Molly

Quinnipiac has a beautiful campus. It is the right size, not too big and not too small. I spend most of my time in my room, in the cafe, or in the library. There is definitely alot of school pride and it shows at all the sports games.

Ashley

I love the community feeling of Quinnipiac. The classes are small enough to get an actual education, you meet and become better friends with many peopl ein the community, and professors have the ability to work with you one on one.

Kat

The best thing about Quinnipiac are their networking opportunities. There are so many internships, jobs, and etc. that are available through this school. The school population is growing so it is getting bigger as the years pass by. The campus is beautiful and it's a wonderful place in the spring. The only problem with this school is that it is private and you cannot get away with as much and voicing you opinion is hard when you need to reach the school administration.

Quinnipiac is an over sized leech that doesn't really give a shit about the students. the president is over paid and has plans for the future. however what good does the future do for the students of the present. The parking situation sucks, and we are no longer to park in north lot on the weekend. Freshman of this year have to live off campus next year, guess QU should add an asterisk to the saying, we guarantee student housing the first 3 years. Quinnipiac is still rather unknown but is slowing getting more publicity. Quinnipiac wants to become more diverse but the student body doesnt want that. why do you think people write racial slurs on the wall. i would be willing to be many people come here because of the low minority numbers.

Stephanie

The best thing about Quinnipiac is the campus atmosphere. Not only is it gorgeous but the people are genuinely friendly and inviting. One thing that I would change is that we are sort of required to get a dell latitude computer which sucks. Sometimes i would consider the school too small, gossip wise, but for me it is just right. Many people have never heard of Quinnipiac, others recognize it for the polls. I spend most of my time in the dorms while i'm on campus. It is not a college town at all (hamden). Quinnpiac's administration sucks, especially since they aren't student friendly and make choices for their gain. The biggest recent controversy was the lack of "may weekend" or the changes to orientation. There are relative amounts of school pride. Quinnipiac is beautiful and that is unusual in itself. I'll always remember joining my sorority, or being an orientation leader. The lack of may weekend, the caf food, and the computers.
