What is Boston College's Reputation?

<p>hope you can give me some guidance…my son is a freshman at bc…we went to orientation and he was so excited to go after orientation…my husband and i were also more impressed with the school by that time…he was assigned to live on the newton campus (all of his friends had parents who went to bc so they are on upper) from the start he had issues with his roommate…we sort of ignored it and told him to deal (he is an only child who has never shared a room)…however, it seems his roomate has some bipolar issues…he has told the ra but was brushed off…he seems to be dealing with that all now…maybe…now he says he hates bc…can make no friends…has nothing in common with anyone and hates his classes…this is a good looking kid from an upper middle class nyc suburb who has always attended catholic schools and just graduated from an all male prep school in the top 10% of a class of 260 and who has always gotten along with everybody…i don’t understand it…do you have any similar experiences to share or any suggestions?</p>
