<p>The 1980s were a long time ago and there are definitely dorms at St. John’s. We will visit Binghamton next weekend and St. John’s in mid-March. I’ve heard that it is thought of as a commuter campus but they have lots of dorms now…even if most students commute.</p>
<p>Many of the Philadelphia schools are in economically struggling “bad” neighborhoods … University of Pennsylvania, Temple University, Drexel. My daughter knows how to be careful and aware of her environment. As for your “too white” comment…while you may be sincere in your comment that you don’t want to offend anyone I think the comment is offensive. </p>
<p>Thanks for your comments…I really appreciate the opinion of the school by those who are familiar with it!</p>
