Clark University Is Awesome
Clark has a really diverse range of studies, and it has a lot of challenging courses, but they are manageable and won't drive you up the wall, but you still feel accomplished when done with any kind of work. The professors I've had are really helpful and always willing to get together to go over anything that isn't perfectly understood. The professors really do care that their students succeed and I'm glad I came here. I just wish the cafeteria food was better, but there are so many markets and stores around that it is really easy to find delicious food less than 0.25 miles away from the school.

Athletics...Wow.
The athletics at Clark are really good, but nobody ever really goes to the games unless one of our friends is on the team. We are not the greatest, but everybody is really proud of what they do. We have minimal school spirit for teams, but we do support them. I really like our swim team, but I hate the lacrosse team because all the laxbros are kind of stuck up. We have almost every sport except for football, but nobody really cares because we like our school anyways.

Cars Aren't Necessary, but They Help
There are a lot of parking options around campus. Most people either park in the parking garage or down the street in the big parking lot. Many others just park on the side of the road. Either way, we have pretty convenient parking, except during big snow storms because the plows can't get through the streets so sometimes cars get towed. Anyone can have a car on campus, but it's great because you don't even have to keep it on campus. Many of the locals are pretty relaxed on where you can keep your car so most people don't mind if it is in front of their houses.

Psychology Is a Big Major
Most people at Clark are really into social sciences and psychology, but we still have great programs for the sciences and arts, as well as many others. All of our professors have been out in the field of work, and almost all of them have worked with graduate and undergraduate students in research and writing published papers. So far, I feel very lucky to be able to have a professor who knows exactly what they are doing and how to succeed at their careers.

The Library Only Gets Crowded During Finals
We have many different computer labs and two different libraries. I'm not even sure where all the computer labs are because there are so many. Each semester we have 35 dollars worth of free printing, which is great, because I thought I used a lot of paper last semester, but I still had 19 dollars left over. Most of the network reliability is good, except for a few of the dorms. It's still pretty good, but sometimes it disconnects for a few seconds and you just have to refresh the page a couple times. The main library has 5 floors, and the other library is one library totally dedicated to scientific research, textbooks, etc and there is always a place to study on campus when you need one, but you just have to be able to look for a good place earlier in the day during finals weeks.
