What impressed you positively?

"Really friendly, warm people that seem to have a happy and tight community. Dean Horwitz has great vision for the school and for its student body... it seems like a very forward-thinking place.

I would also, most of all, like to give a shout out to the best damn rap session ever ;-)" Report Response
