Stockton University is literally in the middle of woods, and that's alright with me. Stockton is very much a green college; the university is pretty heavily wooded and even has a lake in the middle of it. The administrators focus heavily on maintaining a sustainable design, such as their geothermal cooling systems.
Class sizes never exceed 100 students; I would say that the average class size is probably around 30 per class. Because of this, the professors will know your name, so it's essentially like high school in the effect. The vast majority of professors have PhDs in their field and are actively doing research.
Major parties only happen off campus because we don't have any Greek houses on campus. There may be a couple parties with large groups of friends, but those usually get shut down quickly. Don't go to Pi Kappa Phi parties!
Off-campus amenities are less than favorable. You will need a car to get around, and the closest grocery store is probably a 10-15 min drive.

From day one, as a transfer student Stockton won me over with its incredibly genuine, warm, caring staff. On orientation day the staff made me feel so welcome, everyone was so friendly, and not because they had to be, it was truly genuine! The actual DEAN of my department spent over an hour with me helping to map out my first semester by going over different course selections available for me, helping to make sure I didn't waste time or money picking classes that would not benefit my intended major. The academics are challenging and many employers see Stockton University as a highly credited institution to graduate from. I highly recommend any student looking for a college where they will easily fit in and belong. There are so many activities to keep busy and because Stockton is situated in the heart of South Jersey, its relatively close to anything you could need. Between Atlantic City, Philadelphia and New York City there are endless possibilities for fun weekends away!
Stockton is a small school, but growing! The students are very friendly and open-minded, the campus is quiet but close enough to AC to provide some more event and party-type atmosphere if thats what you're looking for. The faculty could not be better, and class sizes are small. No TA will ever lecture or grade exams, professors are heavily involved in student life.
