New College of Florida Top Questions

New College has only two drawbacks: the lack of grades complicates graduate applications, and the wonderful free-spirited ethos of the school (so much a benefit in so many other ways) does not adequately prepare students for the professional focus of some graduate programs.

Dorothea

The fact that although we are fairly liberal and have sometimes radical left wing thinkers, the people here are a bit bigotted sometimes, or they seem to not always practice what they preach in terms of tolerance. It is a very gay-freindly school, but we need to work on being more diverse and pluralistic...

Liz

The cafeteria, but it just means that I absolutely had to learn how to cook my own food.
