What are your general comments?

I stayed overnight with a student host which was helpful in finding out more about the school. This would be an awesome place to go to school if you don't mind working with a less diverse population than in a big city. If your social scene looks like late nights at loud dance clubs, don't come. If your social scene looks like a long hard day skiing and then chilling at a cool coffee bar with friends afterwards, this may be the right place.

Laid back students. Total lack of competition. BEAUTIFUL area. If I end up there I'll probably try to be an awesome snowboarder before I leave.

Not a ton of diversity in either the students or the patients. It's a pretty white state.
