Many Computer Labs and Terrible Printing Services
There are plenty of computer labs dispersed around campus. The difficulty lies in finding a printer to use and not be held up for a significant amount of time. Wifi tends to be slow. The college hasn't extended their bandwith and the larger amount of personal computers on campus keeps the internet slow.

Cold and Wet the Majority of Year
The majority of the year is filled with rain, snow, and cloudy skies. The fall semester has a couple of weeks with nice weather, but it changes rather quickly. The spring semester is filled with days fluttering above freezing and by the weather turns to nice spring days the school year is over and everyone leaves campus.

Facilities Meet Needs
Facilities meet the needs of the students. There is more than enough space for the size of the student population. The size of the gym allows for a large amount of usage. I have never had trouble finding a quiet place to study across campus.

Don't Impact Campus
A large portion of the student body does atheletics but there is no sense of school pride in supporting the teams here. Cross Country and Track are the only two programs I'm aware of that have any consistent success.

Personal Responsibilty Is Taken Seriously
Allegheny has its own honor code that is enforced by the students and agreed upon by the faculty. Any violation of the code is taken seriously and has strict/severe ramifications. Social conduct is a little less severe. Most incidents are documented but students are often given a warning before serious action happens.
