<p>why would you ever want to go to school in the armpit of new england?</p>
<p>My dear Persianking,</p>
<p>By all means such a charming and articulate fellow as yourself should avoid New Haven like the plague... ;)</p>
<p>i think New Haven is an opportunity..actually..to reach out to the high school students there..but i guess thats only me..because they remind me of the students at my school..okie dokie..</p>
<p>New Haven isn't that bad at all. I've been there. <em>shrugs</em></p>
<p>Most people who think New Haven's a dump have got that idea from hearsay based on how the city was twenty or thirty years ago. Actually, the area around Yale is really nice, and the rest of New Haven is OK. Not a dump, not wonderful, just OK.</p>
<p>How about people so backwards in thinking that New Haven is the "armpit of New England" don't apply. It will allow more people who don't mind the actually nice area around Yale.</p>
<p>Thank god for small minds like Darius, I mean persianking. Saves Yale time it would have wasted on his application and the postage they would have used for the thin envelope in April. </p>
<p>How is senior year going?</p>
<p>touche crimson.....what a waste of a thread this is....</p>
<p>I love people who believe EVERYTHING they hear. I live in Connecticut and while it is not a country club, New Haven is nice, and actually if you believe different I think we would all love you NOT to apply.</p>
<p>When I visited Yale, the city seemed wonderful (but my HS is in the South Bronx, NYC, so maybe that played a role in my opinion, hehe). Also, its suppossedly gotten a lot better in the past 10 years.</p>
<p>I thought New Haven was absolutely gorgeous. Others may call the buildings old, but I thought they held some historical memories. I couldn't help but admire the fact that the Stop signs were repainted and that the community was so diverse. New Haven seemed like a melting pot of the old and the new, and I think that the community may even be cuter than Yale.</p>
<p>who the **** posted on my account? NOT ME ^^^^^^^^ NOT ME ^^^^^^^^^^ NOT ME ^^^^^^^^^^^</p>
<p>Very eerie</p>
<p>lol...is someone a little bi-polar?</p>
<p>maybe he's hallucinating...</p>
<p>LOL....that would make sense!</p>
<p>maybe, but i've been off for a while. no idea, but seriously, guys, someone must have gotten into my account. i have no idea about new haven...weirdness.</p>
<p>So what if New Haven isn't nice?</p>
<p>West Philly isn't nice (Penn)
Morningside Heights isn't nice (Columbia)
Cambridge isn't...oh wait...man screw you Harvard.</p>
