Graduated in 2018. Always heard "New College is going to the dogs! It's not WEIRD anymore!" Brushed it off as just nostalgic hipster elitism, but it turned out to be true.
2014 New College was akin to Willy Wonka's chocolate factory: drug addled savants in STEM fields mingled with writers, artists, and historians. Punk wall, wisest wizard wall, underwear wall, kiss your crush wall, fetish bowl, Rocky Horror, Great Gatsby, Easter Keg Hunt, Disorientation. I know I'm romanticizing.
For all our racial equality rhetoric NCF was as diverse as Sweden. Unwoke students (usually CIS white males) were one gaffe away from being ostracized. And after the drug deaths everything changed. Students retreated to their rooms. Parties were policed. Streakers kept their clothes on. Four Winds closed down. The pressure to sanitize the school won out. Enrollment plummeted despite shiny new buildings.
For a brief time, though, the 70's lived on. Ask a jaded 4th year.

This school has a ridiculous habit of escalating situations dramatically and rapidly. Students form cult like clicks, and if you anger anyone of their members its over for you. The school only supports this by forcing therapy and mandated group mediation down your throat. Within 2 years here I have been constantly outlasted and aggressively attacked for pointing out when I myself have been treated unfairly. Academics are great, but student life is an unbearable cycle of beating attacked and fighting just to be left alone for a few days.
The drug culture is dangerous, but hey what else do you have to do on campus!

I have applied here twice. They do take 6 to 8 weeks to let you know if you have been accepted or not. It is an honors college and it is very small. They just became a public school not to long ago. They have sunset graduations, and students get tickets to go to the Ringling Musem. They have a free garden for the students to use. I love the campus, it is small but that is great. The student to teacher ratio is 10:1! I personally love that! You get to know your teacher andother students. I am still waiting to see if I get in this year; I am so excited!
