I can now say I've been to Yale. While speaking at a conference I decided to take a walk around…read morecampus to visit some of the sites. The campus is safe to walk, well lit, and enjoyable. I can see how this campus inspires people to do great things and why people who want to do great things want to attend Yale. I also chose to eat near campus and found it to be a great vibe, easy to find a spot to park, and overall good place.

We've…read morebeen on a lot of visits, the admissions team was personable, organized, and balanced, providing key information while also being respectful of families' time. Campus was beautiful, even on a not-so-perfect weather day. Large enough feel to make one realize they're in college, without urban sprawl to make one feel lost. Many building are beautiful. Some dated, but that's why we have capital campaigns, right? :) Our tour guide, Alina, was simply phenomenal. Clearly authentic, unscripted, but yet knew all the pertinent detail. She made the trip so much better than others we've been on for either of our two boys.

I was told by my professor that I was cleared to register for his class, and everything seemed…read morefine. Fast forward to when I checked Blackboard, and it showed that I couldn't register because of a new hold on my account. I went to the help desk, but they weren't able to assist me, so I contacted the registrar's office. The woman I spoke to was extremely rude and said, "Honey, that's past the deadline," even though no one informed me of this earlier. Because of that lack of communication, I now owe more money to the school than I should. After this experience, I've decided to choose a different school.

Disappointing and Disorganized Experience…read more I was very disappointed with my experience at Gateway Community College in New Haven. Some staff members were dismissive and disrespectful, and the overall process felt poorly organized. Room 205 is one example. Students and families come to the college with high expectations and rely heavily on the information and guidance provided by staff. At that stage, every answer matters. Unfortunately, I did not feel that same level of care, responsibility, or concern was being shown. Public institutions should have strong accountability for the quality of service they provide. I believe the state should consider periodic independent reviews or external audits of student-service departments to ensure that staff are treating students respectfully, providing accurate guidance, and maintaining appropriate service standards.

I agree with Marisol, but I'll put in my two cents on top…read more I love the crowd, even if it is a little on the nerdy side. The lounge and the dining hall are relaxing spots to hang out in, and Friday happy hours come with free! alcohol and greasy, repetitive but free! food. In fact, the law school is a fantastic resource for the hungry and cheap. (Caveat: cover for 3 years will set you back something to the tune of oh...$132,000.) If you hang around at 1:00 PM or after 7:00 PM Monday through Thursday, it takes very little diligence to scrounge free Thai, Indian, pizza, and if you're lucky, something else (but you have to be quite lucky). The courtyard is perfect for hanging out in warmer months, but it may as well be closed for business during the winter. If you need to unwind indoors, the couches in the lounge and the four armchairs on the main floor of the library make for prime nappy time, and no one judges you for drooling. One complaint I have about Yale Law School is that the lunchtime crowd in the dining hall is terribly and visibly young. The library is also a total undergraduate hotspot. I think YLS would be much improved if it poached the bouncer from Anchor and made all the underaged children take their biology textbooks and study at Toad's.
