Nichols is probably the best place I have ever played football (soccer) in the Buffalo area. The field is perfect. Unfortunately I have a very poor record here... in finals, I've always been on the losing side. Then again I've always been on the massive underdog team in finals, and it's a miracle that those teams have even made it to the final game... but yes, never won a trophy here. Nevertheless, thoroughly appreciate the surface and the facilities. I won't mention the guy that took me out here on this field and severely damaged my ankle. On purpose. That kind of thing is hard to forgive but what can you do. That's life.

Other reviews suggest that spending your time and money there will assure you of "success." Well, after leaving there, I earned five college degrees from three different universities including a PhD.

It's wonderful for an education and has rated number one for many years in the parochial high school element. They've lost their personality. It's all about maintaining status. My daughter chose this school for the wrong reasons. It's cool location. I prepaid her freshman year and was beset by calls from her guidance counselor saying that she is just not up to par. She is not good enough to stay. No offer of reimbursement for tuition paid...just remove her. Also, her purse was taken. Nardin not responsible. The agnst that this small school caused was long lasting. Her lost purse, sans cell fone and personal touch cafeteria card, was returned albeit 4 months later. Guidance counselor is long gone, I believe her sole purpose in life was to bother individuals. Her office, in the lower part of the building, was the smoking lounge when I attended. Cool school, be careful.

Because of her high scoring metrics several top schools recruited her with generous offers. We decided on NU because it had her major and no students loans were needed. We've made it through the first dream. Now the goal is to make NU realize they picked the right woman for the job. Any grad schools wanna get in early on a top tier student?

Catering by Joe's Deli As this is a high school, there is no beer. There is water, soda pop, cookies and bananas also offered. A nice, if somewhat chilly course, and a really nice post race party.

Back in 1992-1996 during my time at Gow, many events like school battles in Triva, school plays, musicals, dances and sporting events happened at The Gow School which Buffalo Seminary took part in. Males that knew how to talk to women or got by on their looks might hook up with one of these outstanding ladies at a school dance or at The Galleria Mall. One of the most memorable times with Buffalo Seminary was a battle of wits triva.  One lady was just getting all the answers for her school.  I don't remember the outcome now, but I believe Buffalo Seminary won the game, but not by a lot. I also believe I was hand picked to do one of these types of challenges,  but backed out of fear.  Looking back I regret doing this.  I think of the words Buddy Revell said to Jerry Mitchell.  "You didn't even try...How does that feel?"...yes the quote was edited,  but if you have seen the movie Three O' Clock High, then you already know the whole quote.  Back in the day, I never got the chance to date one of these ladies, but I didn't know how to talk to women until my second dance my 9th grade year.  Confidence is the key word here and sitting on the steps of a dance room and not making a move for 2 hours can be very depressing.   I did not miss an opportunity the second time around.   If I got rejected, I moved onto the next woman at the dance.  Education  at its finest. Most women were happy to be asked to dance.   Buffalo Seminary is still The Gow School's Sister School, but now The Gow School is a co-ed school. One day maybe Buffalo Seminary will follow suit.
