Big Picture
Most people have the idea that Yale is some sort of exclusive gentleman's club. This is completely true, in a way: Mory's, the Yale Club, secret societies Ð they all exist. And of course, when you graduate, there are tons of successful Yalies who would be happy to give you a job or put you in contact with a colleague. Yet people seem to think that only rich white legacy kids have access to this, when the truth is that it is available to anyone who works hard enough to get in. Yale goes out of its way to let in a completely diverse group of students, both racially and economically. Now, anyone can be part of the Yale legacy.
Academic Life
Classes here are completely varied. You can find a class on practically anything. They range in size from ten to two-hundred and hardly any of them start before ten! All the professors are very different. Some make an effort to get to know their students, while others simply lecture twice a week. However, every one of them is guaranteed to be a character! If you search through and find the interesting stuff, you can do some amazing things. This year, my Aztecs of Mexico class went on a field trip to Mexico City!
