I don’t think I’ll be able to afford going here, but this was one of the best campus tours I’ve watched.

[@rebeccayood5152]

I was a student there from 1989-1993. Unfortunately, it doesn't look the same as it did then. It's a real shame because it was so incredibly beautiful back then. Most of these buildings and activities, like the dancing competitions, were not available when I was a student there.

[@amysill3815]

What did it look like in the 80s-90s? Based on the tour, it looks lovely now but I’m sad about how much our physical environment is degrading everywhere.

[@rebeccayood5152]

@@amysill3815 It's kinda hard to explain but it was really gorgeous back then. There was a HUGE quad near the main Dining Hall. The Dining Hall was called McElroy, and it was really awesome!! Near the main dining area was a little cafe called Sweets and Treats. It kicked ass. You could get pastries, coffee, frozen yogurt and other such things. Tons of people used to sit in the quad. One guy I knew back then even sold flowers there.

Is this like, a really religious school yeah?

[@paulcronin9317]

No. The curriculum is not faith-based or focused on religion. However, there is clearly some attention given to preparing for a career with the understanding of ethical and honest dealings with others. As everywhere, I assume, there's the opportunity to practice one's faith to the extent that each person wants to do. (observations from a Golden Eagle!)

Very impressive, but how is the coffee and biscotti in that part of Boston ? Any 700-year old architecture ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaDQZZeujq-Jfbc I wouldn't even begin to guesstimate what a 4-year degree would cost in Florence, but I guess anyone prepared to live that far from home has it covered. Seriously, BC almost certainly looks better on a CV, but for the art history crowd this would be the experience of a lifetime, with every other Renaissance hotspot just a few hours away. Buon appetito !

Having graduated from the school I can honestly say the education was not worth much to me. Its a school which educates on subjects which are utterly useless.

[@amysill3815]

Can you explain further? We are looking into this college for my daughter.

[@kellmarques9929]

@@amysill3815 I would also like to know

[@chriswander4929]

There is no doubt that BC is an excellent and beautiful college. However If i was a student in BC, I will feel extremely frustrated whenever I compare BC to the neighbor colleges, MIT and Harvard.

[@agingcynic]

I graduated in 1972. I had an absolute blast! People who get hung up on Ivies do themselves a disservice . A school like BC or peers like Wake Forest or Duke can deliver a better experience with the same professional opportunities. Life on a suburban campus is more laid back. If you can demonstrate need, you are nearly guaranteed to have no $tress! Go for it!

[@ambbc08]

I can honestly say there is doubt in my mind. I graduated from the college and while I ultimately did well for myself the schooling was laughable and the environment was poorly conducive to the objective of learning. Much of the curriculum was irrelevant and overall I think if held to the scrutiny it should it'd come up empty handed. Take for example alumni - unlike Harvard which you compared it to, there are no former President alumni, no secretary of states, no noble laureates, no billionaires and really no one all that important. Its endowment has been flat for a decade despite an inflationary and generally favorable investment market (2008-2023). I felt the education was very much lacking by an insistence on learning utterly worthless things to the distraction of useful subjects. I regret going there and it was a mistake.
