This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

It's funny by irishlaw2010
I really enjoyed my 4 years at Bowdoin. Many of my best friends to this day were classmates from those years. The campus is beautiful, you're close to the ocean, the outing club has weekly trips (Katahdin, sailing, sea kayaking, Appalachian Trail, snowshoeing/xc skiing, etc.) that you can go on for basically free.
That being said, it's a tiny school (just over 1800 kids now but was just over 1600 when I was there) which is both good (you know basically everyone) and bad (you know basically everyone). Sometimes, I felt that I missed out on the big-time college campus scene.
I was happy to go to ND for law school and live in a hall as an AR because I felt like I got to see that side of college life as well.
