A small, liberal arts college located in New London, CT. Conn College, as it is affectionately known by the majority of the student body, is home to about 1900 undergraduates. The ConnColl student probably went to a not-quite-as prestigious boarding school in New England and likely plays at least one varsity sport, with varying legitimacy. Conn students are not as smart or as athletically talented as most of the rest of the NESCAC, mostly because it went co-ed much more recently than many of the older schools and so has had less time for alumnae to pump the endowment to recruit better athletes and raise the standard for admission.
Socially Conn is not what it used to be. Though there is a moderately solid bar scene in New London, it's only fun when a large group of Conn kids go otherwise the local New Lo meth heads will eat your face. Parties on campus tend to be decent at best, as floor parties tend to get broken up quickly and there are no dorms big enough for a lot of people to hang out. Off campus parties at the lax house or at the ridge apartments are usually the best bet, as there are most always kegs and no campus po.
strange amount of skunks. almost all white kids. dece food. hot girls. good bud. a lot of strange kids in strange dorms doing strange things. if youre cool you will find a way to have fun, but only on thursdays and saturdays.

A small, Northeastern Liberal Arts school located in New London Connecticut. Conn College (as it is affectionately called), is, to put it bluntly: not a good school.
It accepts low SAT scores, and high grades from not-so-good schools. The student body can generally be described as abnormally dumb kids who are extra pretentious. An astounding amount of its students end up there upon not being accepted to an Ivy League, and they have never gotten over it. It is never anyone's first choice. Everyone who goes there will tell you how incredible it is, but eventually, it feels as if they're just saying that to convince themselves. Or, they're just stoned or shitfaced, like all conn college kids are. Also, it's simply a bad education.

Person from a good school: hey! So how's Connecticut College?
Conn College kid: It's amaaaaaazing, probably the best education ever.
Person from a good school: .... are you sure?
Conn College kid: are you kidding? like everyone in my class like knows everything. Like we're reading books.
Person from a good school: Cool, sounds sweet.
Conn College kid: yeah, probably learning more than you... or than any Ivy League shit school, ew, I hate Ivy League schools...
Person from a good school: Didn't you apply to Cornell ED?
Conn College kid: *bursts into tears*
