kaplan's college guide is my favorite: "if students at the college of charleston were any more laidback, they'd fall over." it's a beautiful school, with beautiful girls and beautiful boys too. there are more girls than boys but the ratio isn't really all that noticeable.

A lot of people think that it's all preppy kids down in the south or that everybody's really conservative. A lot of people think it's a huge party school and that everyone skips classes all the time to go to the beach.
