Dominique

The friendly campus. Everyone that attends plymouth is just nice. It is really easy to make friends. Plymouth is also known for being a party school. Yeah, there are a lot of parties, but you don't have to be a partier to come to Plymouth. There are plenty of other things to do.

Meghan

My school is best known for it's outstanding people and school unity. Everyone is so friendly and always welcoming. On campus, no matter who you look at you will see someone wearing Plymouth State apparel. Home men's ice hockey games and football games are almost always sold out. Sometimes people even have to be turned away from the hockey games because the buildings carrying capacity cannot contain that many individuals. The people who work for the school, right down to the breakfast cooks, are all extremely helpful and kind. They truly want to see everyone grow as individuals.
