What are your general comments?

Buffalo was one of my best interview experiences so far. The dean of admissions and basically all of the faculty members I met were so, so nice. Their curriculum changes are also really good - most days classes end by noon. They seem very committed to keeping up to date in terms of technology, etc. My two interviewers were very relaxed. It didn't seem like they were reading questions off of a list. The day was very organized and it just ran very smoothly.
