What's BAD about Dartmouth?

<p>Dartmouth is a great school but no place is perfect. So... what's bad about Dartmouth?</p>

<p>NOTHING…just depends on personal preference.</p>

<p>Extreme cold.</p>

<p>Hanover (the town) is for old people. Luckily Dartmouth has an awesome social scene so its all good in the end.</p>

<p>No mall, no big city, and on average it is 10 degrees colder than many of the more Eastern/Southeastern Ivies (son did that analysis before committing). When son wants to get away, takes the Dartmouth coach (runs every 2 hours) to Boston to see friends or does a road trip with friends to Montreal or Vermount. On the what do you need list, add a passport.</p>

<p>lots of drinking…
it may or may not be considered bad depending on your opinions</p>

<p>Trisemester. The academic year starts late and ends late</p>

<p>the students suck at breakdancing</p>

<p>and they’re all short and sing in high-pitched voices and have oompa-loompa-esque body types</p>

<p>its on the quarter system… there is just a summer quarter as well.</p>
