Not Much to Do

There is not much to do around lafayette. You really have to go out of town to do anything. The Lehigh Valley Mall is the best place for this since it is so large, but if you don't like shopping you are a bit out of luck.

Run Down and Limited Options

The houses and apartments are limited for seniors only. College owned can be well maintained and they take care of any necessary repairs.

Nonexistent

The school is incredibly strict. The only fun and redeeming part of the school is its Greek life, which the administrations is trying to get rid of. The school is making a big mistake. Students who wish to drink will have to do so in their dorms. Its not safe and will lead to more alcohol related incidents.
