My daughter survived the winter 1) without warm boots and 2) without a really warm coat, lol. I would have bought them for her with pleasure.
There are tunnels connecting most of the dorms and connecting most of the academic buildings. Unfortunately a quarter-mile walk between the two, but if you go from the closest tunnel to the closest tunnel, it’s less.
It’s a suburban, enclosed campus, unlike U. of Rochester which is within the city. Right off campus are miles and miles of almost every brand name store you’ve ever heard of.
What I like most about it is that they are extremely focused on outcomes–that you’ll be able to get a job or acceptance into an appropriate graduate or professional program when you get out of school. My daughter (and everyone else I think) has an academic advisor and a career advisor within her college, plus there’s a pre-med advisor.
