Connecticut College is a terrific school with exceptionally nice kids & faculty. Everyone seems rather happy there and its “artsy” bent attracts top students from around the country. Mom55’s daughter could be very happy there. Also, Amtrak stops in New London and so it’s just an hour+ to Boston or New York if you feel the need to go into a city. And as for visiting Connecticut College (or any college campus for that matter) on a Saturday morning: of course it’s quiet. The kids just went to bed only a few hours earlier after a long Friday night celebrating the end of the school week – or they’re just welcoming the opportunity to “sleep in” instead of having to get up on just four hours sleep for class.
