Some Are Better Than Others
Brown University is very old so there are some old buildings and some very new buildings. The new facilities are fabulous! Not only are they aesthetically pleasing, they are designed with students in mind. The gyms are nice...once again some bigger and better than others. The student center is pretty breath-taking with a contemporary architecture style that overlooks the Main Green. The Main Green is a huge grassy area canopied with large luscious trees and surrounded by beautiful antiquated buildings/lecture halls. This is where you'll find a lot of student life groups handing out flyers, etc.

Sigma What?
Greek life is there for parties and some other events, but it doesn’t dominate at Brown. It’s not a big deal if you are in a frat or sorority, and it is not a big deal if you never set foot in one. It’s nice because you can go to frat parties, which can be fun, but it’s not a status thing.

4 Distinct Seasons
Summer is hot and humid. It's actually pretty gross because you're always sticky and wet and there's no AC in the dorms.
Fall is cool. The leaves change and the campus is truly beautiful in Fall. It's all about light pea coats and occasional rain boots in fall
Winter is cold. There's no way around it. The great thing about winter though is the fashion. You can be freezing in style. Don't forget snow boots because it gets really slippery
Spring is the most beautiful season. It starts a little late and there's still rain but the flowers really accent the campus antiquity.
And i love love love every season!

I Haven't Finished Yet but...
Brown has been rated the Happiest College Campus in the world and I think that rating holds true. i couldn't imagine myself anywhere else. The people are friendly, the campus is beautiful, and everyone has a place at Brown.
