the people here are extremely friendly and thus it is easy to make friends. there are limited things to do outside of college life but the company make it fun. the town seems rather small but it's mostly revolved around the three colleges here. there is a lot of study room and I usually spend most of my time in our huge three story library. during the week most are focused on their schoolwork but the weekends allow for a whole lot of socialization.
