Pros

I cannot say enough good things about working within the administrative area of BU. I understand that different departments may have different experiences.

Cons

I really do not think that there's anything bad that I can say about BU. I literally only had the best of experiences while working there. I only left because I relocated to a different region of the US. If I stayed in Boston, then I would have continued working at BU.
