Question
Don't apply to BU.Not so bright
Don't apply to BU. the school is just way too big. Most of the profs. at BU are nice but BU is just not worth the money (I would rather buy books and study on my own).

I am in my third year except im going to transfer out of here. I guess BU was the best mistake of my life in a sense... that i NOW know what not to do in the future.

Question
I am planning a course of study inQuite Bright
I am planning a course of study in art history. I was very pleased to see that the students are really interested in the course of study and have a passion for it. When I went to a open house on campus, the student were dressed in historical costumes. I was impressed that they had gone out of their way to dress. Some of the costumes were excellent. I felt even better when some of the better or best costumes were rented from my home town of Providence, R.I. and were rented from my favorite store called ,

'Bruna Puppets and Costumes' . My mom used to buy puppets and costumes when I was a kid.I knew that BU was going to be my school.
