Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Many at Colby feel college is a place for students to grow intellectually and socially. Whether it’s in class, conversations around the dinner table, a club, or speaking with another student from a different upbringing, Colby students exemplify this maxim. The community here is one of its defining features, and Colby students (and professors and staff, for that matter) love the College. Most cite the friendly and intellectually engaging people and the pristine new facilities, and although academics can be strenuous, the classes and professors are undeniably wonderful. Students work very hard in and out of the classroom, and most are involved in multiple activities outside of classes.

Many students choose Colby because of the remarkable intimacy between the students, faculty, administrators, and alumni. The school is not for everyone, though. Many Colby students don't have much free time, and some find campus to be claustrophobic at times. Nonetheless, the campus is bolstered by the student body’s seemingly endless stores of energy, intellectual curiosity, and optimism. Despite the fact that the work can be overwhelming at times, most find refuge in their growth and confidence that develops over four years on Mayflower Hill.

Campus

Colby's campus is a great size, because it is not too big but it also is not to small at the same time. Every building is decently within walking distance. Also the atmosphere on campus is very friendly and open to visitors.

Dining off-campus is very convenient to get to and is decently priced for us college students. There is a small, but nice variety of fast-food places and actual restaurants.

Campus

Colby has plenty of spaces on campus to study and plenty of activities to keep every student busy. The student center is the center of all social life do to the spacious lounging areas, the numerous clubs, the game room and the small dining service across from a flat screen T.V.
