Conn is great! One thing I always notice is how many students wear "Conn" attire like sweatshirts and t-shirts that say Conn on them. We are very proud of being camels and like to show it. For me, the college is a great size too, under 2000 students but big enough that i do meet new people if not every day but every other day. When i tell people that i go to Connecticut College almost everyone thinks i got to Uconn which gets EXTREMELY annoying because Connecticut College is SUCH a better school than Uconn! But people who are well-educated know Conn. Something that is unusual about Conn college is that it offers free music lessons for credit! Due to an endowment, students can take any type of music lesson for no charge. I take lessons on both violin and viola with an awesome teacher! I spend most of my time on campus either in class, the library, my room or the student center. During swim season (I'm on the varsity swim team from November to February) i spent most of my time in the pool and the library.
