Big Picture
I don't like Holy Cross but I love what I did here. The administration is too removed from the needs and wants of the student body. The majority of student still act like they're in High School and most Professors (and especially the administration) don't encourage students to mature and change. The surrounding area is OK, you can make the best of it if you have a car. Overall, for me Holy Cross was sometimes too small and many people I came in contact with were very sheltered. However, the friends I made, the groups I was a part of, and the Professors I had made it worth it. My favorite thing about my Holy Cross education was my year abroad.
Academic Life
Academics is Holy Cross' strong point.
Student Body
There's a group on campus for every possible minority. They work hard to accomodate everyone but tend to alienate each group from the other in this way.
The Best Things
Study Abroad
The Worst Things
Students come in sheltered and they leave sheltered.
