Big Picture
I transfered from bard and it was the best decision I have ever made, despite being the hardest. there are some incredible minds at bard and most of them are suffocated in the midst of a descent into a hard partying, mind altering journey through their time at school. i was frustrated and anxious most of the time i was there. the administration largely chose to ignore these problems. this school is in the middle of nowhere with long winters and a small student population. it was a lot like being at a summer camp but never leaving and constantly being consumed by some chemical or another. i met the most amazing people i have ever met in my life while at bard and i also felt like i was in hell. bard is not for the faint of heart.
Academic Life
Academics are very good but there are no resources, no funding for students, you can do whatever you want but theres no financial support to do it. Bard has no intent for its students to find a job after school, you are there to learn but not to have a successful career. this is both a negative and a positive.
Student Body
People are a little wacky at bard, but everyone seems to find their niche and be accepted in the end.
The Best Things
The people and the academics
The Worst Things
The drinking, drugs and lack of activities and the library SUCKS
