I feel that the Saint Bonaventure community itself is a very welcoming environment. The professors and upperclassman are very inviting and eager to help you in any way that they can. The academics are rigorous but I do learn a lot in class. Its always good to be able to unwind at the end of a long week at a basketball game, the atmosphere there is always electric!
The university is a small school, which provides great opportunities to get to know both students and professors well. The professors, especially in the biology department, really do care about the needs of the students and are always willing to take time to meet with them as necessary. However, the small school environment does make finding some opportunities difficult, such as more niche clubs or classes. However, overall, the student population is very helpful and kind and it is a great place to be.
SBU is the ideal school. Unmatched spirit. Beautifully scenic environment. Historic buildings. Close to skiing, hiking, biking, and boating. This school is an an active outdoorsman's dream.
The alumni are outstanding in there support of students. Every job I've ever had I have obtained through my alumni connections. Now that I am in a hiring position for a large (100k+) multinational company, I go out of my way to hire alumni.
Athletics, especially basketball, are thrilling and will keep you engaged with the school for the rest of your life.
At many schools, you could be just a number. At Bona's you matter.
