<p>To offer a different perspective on this topic, I would consider Wellesley a seperated campus, not necessarily a lonely campus. Part of the reason Wellesley seems lonely is that it is very difficult and time consuming to get of campus. It takes 40min-1hour to get into boston by either bus or train, and there is no real place in the ville where students hang out. We buy something at CVS, grab a coffee at Starbucks and walk back to campus. </p>
<p>I can see how many prospies may have gotten the sense that Wellesley is a lonely place and I will not deny that sometimes it is. Most people spend a lot of time studying and you have to work to have a social life off campus. But, I will say that I have cultivated many close friendships. I am currently finishing my first year and possibly transferring next semester. I say possibly because my friends are the reason I want to stay. In this all female environment you will create close friendships that will last a lifetime and you will soon understand the bond between all Wellesley students past and present.</p>
