Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Overall, students enjoy their experience at Conn. Some of the most often reasons cited include the amazing professors, strong academic programs, the small size of the school, and the beautiful campus. This is a great school for students who don’t know what they want to major in; Conn’s General Education requirements make it mandatory to take a variety of courses, and faculty are always available to advise students. Because of this, many come to Conn a tabula rasa, unsure of what to study, and leave as knowledgeable practitioners in a field they genuinely enjoy. The most common complaint among students who don’t like Conn is its small size. Because of this, it’s important to visit overnight or at least take a tour to try the campus on for size.

Despite the restricted social scene, most students find a core group of friends and have an unforgettable four years. Besides, with a willingness to try new things, students should never be bored on campus. There are so many opportunities to get involved in athletics, music, academics, and student organizations that everyone should be able to find something that he or she enjoys. The Conn experience can be as much or as little as you make of it. It’s all up to you.

Don't Bring a Car

The parking facility for students is beyond horrible. There is never enough parking and students usually get fined for parking in the faculty lot, but if there were more spots available for students there wouldn't be this problem.

Technology at Its Finest!

There are multiple computer labs, all filled with the latest Apple software. The printers are in great condition and cheap! It costs $.06 to print a paper and it comes out double sided. You are given a $30 to print for the year. You will never use that much paper up, but the one downfall with the technology is the wireless. Without an ethernet cord, you might as well give up trying to connect with the internet. And even with the ethernet cord, it will take at least 2 min to load a page.

The City Surrounded by Water and Trees, and Military Bases

The city of New London was mistakenly labeled as a city, but it is a small sea port town with shabby restaurants. The food is good however, I have seen better. I come from the state of Connecticut in the city area of Hartford. There is much more for college students, in New London, there are bars, that students have to get fake IDs to get into. I have yet to seen an attraction, there is a local dirty beach and hardly any diversity.
