<p>So, as I’m sure you all know, Brown is ranked #1 for “happiest students” in the Princeton Review. How do they measure that? Does it mean “most overall satisfied with the education they’re receiving” or “most bubbly, friendly personalities” or what?</p>
<p>It interests me a lot because I already get tired of seeing so many down, apathetic people at my high school and would love to go to a college where most people are actually happy! :P</p>
<p>I’m not sure, but I think they did a survey of students, and probably asked them to rank how much they enjoy their school, and Brown came out tops. Which is a very good sign indeed :)</p>
<p>People here are very happy. It’s weird. But good. The Princeton Review does not lie, at least with this ranking.</p>
<p>Even when I’m feeling down, taking a walk around campus and seeing all the beautiful buildings/people is enough to bring a smile to my face.</p>
<p>Strange how I never managed to put two and two together until now…</p>
<p>It seems that ignorance IS bliss, anyone? </p>
<p>HARHAR</p>
<p>But seriously this explains everything</p>
<p>So, would you guys say that there IS a generally happy, friendly environment at Brown?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>^Seems to be the case isn’t it?</p>
<p>It’s only happy because you don’t have to take classes that you don’t like, and then people feed off each other’s happiness. Nothing special.</p>
<p>very formulaic of you. im sure it’s that simple. </p>
<p>i think they should do a survey of former employees on how disorganized a place is. Brown might score pretty well there too.</p>
