Guys & Girls at Lewis & Clark College

A

Hipsters and Environmentalists on Steroids.

It's a small liberal arts college in Portland...aka hipster/environmental activist central. Girls with unshaved legs and armpits is very common. That being said, you still have the cigarette-smoking, clean-shaven, pretty attractive hipster chicks who know everything about every band you have never heard of. Guys with dreads, guys with tight pants and fancy vests, guys with no fashion sense at all are also very common. If you are looking for superficial, candy lips, big sunglasses, and orange tans...this is not the place for you. If you are looking for beer-brained, big guns, and rock hard abs...look again. There's also 0 greek life.

Needless to say, these "hipsters" and "super environmentalists" all (for the most part) have great hearts, high ambitions, and outstanding intelligence. Partying at this school can sometimes be a learning experience. Intellectual conversations and witty humor is inevitable. People at this school are curious about EVERYTHING. If you want to do things you have never done before, you're with the right people. Everyone at this school has an uncanny knowledge of music, art, literature, the environment, movies...etc. That being said there are some pretentious vibes, but ignore them. People will lighten up the more you get to know them.

Transportation at Lewis & Clark College

C

The Razz

The razz, the pio, the bus, the orange thing that moves and gets us where we want to be...is okay. It runs hourly, which could seem like a lot, but when you only spend 10 minutes buying groceries, you live 20 minutes away from the market by foot, it's all up-hill, and you're carrying a heavy bag of vegan ice cream....it sucks.

When your destination is downtown Portland, however, it's a little better. You really just have to know the times and HOPE it's not 20 minutes late...because, yes, that happens.

Inside Scoop at Lewis & Clark College

A-

Great!

Academic programs are AWESOME. The professors are phenomenal! Homework load = overwhelming sometimes. But it's worth it.

Social scene - there are sooo many opportunities to find friends and everyone is pretty easy-going and very sweet. The only person who might have difficulty finding a friend is a right-wing conservative republican nut.

The facilities are absolutely OUTSTANDING.

Campus life - pretty cool. If you smoke cigarettes and want to stop...good luck. The designated smoking areas (DSA) are essentially the hot spots for hanging out/meeting people.

Unique opportunities!! - The study abroad program is amazing! Cuba!? India!? France? Italy? Africa!? Asia? Australia? South America? etcetcetc.. they've got it all!
