St. Joesph's in CT?

I am looking at this school tomorrow, at their open house.
But it's an all girls school. What are your thoughts on this?

Jenn - I've been a college administrator for more than 30 years and I'd never heard of Saint Joseph until you posted this. It has only 1,000 students, but fewer than half of them live on campus. That gives me cause for concern - the main reason that students select colleges that small is for the close-knit sense of community, and a predominantly commuter school would not provide that.

I'd consider gadad's counsel wise and "on the money."
