Pros
it's a great place to do your research and learn a lot. the stipend is just enough to get by in Cambridge, but not enough to make even minimum student loan payments or save anything. health care is great, but better dental would go a long way.
Cons
nearly every student is white, straight, male and middle class. even though MIT makes a good show of supporting people outside of that demographic, in practice, there are a lot of awkward moments and microaggressions between whtie male students and everyone else. it doesn't help that the student newspaper, in the interest of being 'balanced' pubishes overtly homophobic and racist articles.
