This school brings out many of my mixed emotions; it gets me stressed with the workload, it makes me glad due to my amazing recreation center, is makes me feel safe becasue of the gaurds who stay out late as i walk to my car from the library, it makes me excited when i hear about interesting events going on on campus, above all, i love attending California State University Long Beach.

Emily

Boston University is a college that provides the opportunity to explore the subjects and interests of each individual student, and allows its students to grow not just as scholars, but also as people who are aware of themselves and their own developing ideas about the world around them.

This is hard question for me to answer as I am from Boston and I have seen BU long before I chose to attend at as student. I guess there would be a range of what someone would see when looking at the campus. Some may say that the campus has a feel of old and new as some buildings look archaic while others are brand new. Many people would be surprised that the campus extends over a few miles rather than the typical circular format. I would also think people would comment on the amount of places to eat and shop conveniently around campus.
