<p>i always have a problem with the connotation of “commuter” or suitcase school. my S2 goes to one that people call a commuter school and think there isnt a “full college experience” because people go home. at that school there are 11K undergrads, 70% of freshman live on campus, not sure on the stats for the upperclassmen…but there are 5 big dorm buildings. lets say 80% of students go home on the weekend (way higher than actual but…) that leaves 2200 students on campus. That is more students than alot of LAC’s!!!. if you cant find something to do or people to do things with with 2200 students, you have a problem. You might have to make a bigger effort to see who in your dorm hangs around on weekends, you might want to be more involved in clubs etc but you arent all alone on a campus. or else we better say lac’s dont provide enough people to have a college experience either</p>
