<p>@bzipp - When Dave72 refers to “this site” he actually is referring to the [Oberlin</a> blogs<a href=“that%20is%20a%20link,%20by%20the%20way”>/url</a> and not the site we are currently on (College Confidential). Dave72 is correct that the blogs are the best place to actually see and hear what is happening here. They are written by current students, faculty, and staff as a collection of first person perspectives about what going to school here and living here is like in the day to day.</p>
<p>The top color bars on the [url=<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/]blog”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/]blog</a> site](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/) are drop down menus to specific topics, and clicking on each of those will take you to all the posts that are archived for that specific category.</p>
<p>Sounds like you might want to start off by reading from the following categories:</p>
<p>[Oberlin</a> Blogs | Student Life & Culture](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/community/life_culture/index.shtml]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/community/life_culture/index.shtml)</p>
<p>[Oberlin</a> Blogs | Events](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/community/events/index.shtml]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/community/events/index.shtml)</p>
<p>[Oberlin</a> Blogs | Music, Theater, & The Arts](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/community/music_theater_arts/index.shtml]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/community/music_theater_arts/index.shtml)</p>
<p>[Oberlin</a> Blogs | Oberlin’s Campus](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/living/campus/index.shtml]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/living/campus/index.shtml)</p>
<p>[Oberlin</a> Blogs | The Town of Oberlin](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/living/town/index.shtml]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/living/town/index.shtml)</p>
<p>[Oberlin</a> Blogs | Food & Dining](<a href=“http://blogs.oberlin.edu/living/dining/index.shtml]Oberlin”>http://blogs.oberlin.edu/living/dining/index.shtml)</p>
<p>But we do recommend exploring beyond these categories too. Commenting on any post by a current student will alert them to your questions, and they’ll respond relatively quickly if you’re wondering about something they’ve written about.</p>
