HELP: Is Notre Dame a good fit for me??

Actually the topic creator addresses the same single issue that I have about Notre Dame. I’m already set to start school at ND in the fall and I too stalk the online webcams. Every time I look, the campus appears to be dead in the two outdoor locations available. So I also wonder about the campus energy.

I’ll be a grad student and happenings around campus will of course grow less and less important as I get deeper into research, but I’ve grown accustomed to lively campuses (I attend The University of Alabama and the ONLY dull moments on campus during the school year are mid-semester breaks, same with the other SEC schools I’ve visited for non-athletic occasions. Even Penn State was surprisingly lively when I visited last summer). I know the difference between the sizes of the student body, but I would hope there’s more than the 3-4 people I usually see if any anytime I view the webcams.

So is the campus kinda low-key or did they just choose a bad spot for those two webcams? It’s not that much of a big deal to me and it was not one of the things factored in my decision to enroll, but it would be a cool bonus
