There’s this buzz around Emerson; it seeps through the sidewalks out in front of the buildings and echoes down the hallways. Just being there, walking to class, sipping your Dunkin’ Donuts coffee, and wiping the sleep from your eyes, you feel like you’re a part of something, like you’re tapped into the pulse of the underground current, the Bohemian vibe. Like Greenwich Village during the Beat revolution, it’s a mecca for the creative. Perhaps that has less to do with the actual institution and more to do with the students, but the fact remains. On the flip side, I have had some problems with the courses offered, specifically in the writing department; there just weren’t enough. By and large, however, I feel that I’m getting a solid education, and I’m sure the connections I’ve made and continue to make at Emerson will prove invaluable in the future. Emerson is definitely not for everyone, but if you happen to be a little left of center, it could be the place for you.
