Question: need some information about clarion university?hey, i just got accepted in Clarion university for business, and i have the following questions. What is the best dorm room place to be in? How is the nightlife in the university? What is the best Fraternity group to be involve in? How the life in Clarion?10 months ago
Best AnswerI went to Clarion. It's a nice little, rural campus. 1. Depends on your style. Wilkinson and Nair are real experiences, and they're not far from the Business building. Personally, I wanted it a bit quieter, and lived in Balentine. 2. Nightlife is sparse, outside of University type things. i.e. there are some excellent Frat parties, or you can go to a local bar. 3. My favorite was kicked off campus and dissolved when I was there, so. . . 4. I enjoyed it because the town is so small, and it's easy to study. At the same time it's not pretentious. |
Best AnswerUsed to. Have fun there, it's a pretty cool university. " ah, college days...." |
