suitcase school?

<p>Looking at Rider for my S but he will not be happy at a school that empties out on weekends. Is Riders rep as a suitcase school still true? Thanks!</p>

<p>well i know that some kids who go there live at home already. its really local too so that could be a possibility that a lot of kids go home on the weekends. but i’m sure there’s a chunk of kids who don’t too.</p>

<p>Outside Princeton pretty much all NJ schools are suitcase to some extent. So many kids live within 2 hours of school and the pull home is strong. Rider is about average on this. Greek kids stay the most.</p>

Yes I think it’s true. I went there on a Saturday and I saw maybe 1 student, and everything seemed to be closed
