What are your general comments?

Good school, nice people. What you picture for Southern hospitality. Students seem happy, large multifaceted cafeteria that can feed any diet. Campus is nice, updated for the most part and clean. Small but coming from a large undergraduate school, I don't see it as a disadvantage, makes getting where you need to go easier. Students study wherever on campus, many in the main COM admin building where professors can be easily accessed.
