Campus Visit Notes for Connecticut College


Visit Description:

Lots of students have cars; seemed like they'd be needed to get off campus anywhere

Students all seemed Preppy/Jocky

Had lunch at veggie dining room – very pathetic salad bar; chili and bruschetta (hot options) tasted like camp food.
