<p>its not at all what you think, if you have a chance go for a visit during the school year and you can see. the campus is beautifully laid out so while there are plenty of people everywhere, it does not seem crowded by any means. although the libraries do get very busy all day/night during exams and its often difficult to find a nice place to study, but there are secret spots you will figure out for yourself. the campus is very busy in the early fall and late spring, when its warm because people hang out on the lawn and outside the library in between classes. but its not the crowded atmoshpere that you are thinking of. its very comfortable and mimics the styled bustle of the downtown just across the street. its cool, trust me.</p>
