Pros

It is a small campus so you know most people. The town is cute and quaint

Cons

This is a great place to start out or to settle down. Other than that, consider looking elsewhere. The pay is very low compared to the cost of living. However, you can make good pay if you suck up to certain people. As for Athletics, the only way you will make adequate pay for the amount of hours you are expected to work is if you get in good with the right clique and even then, it is not worth the unhappiness.
