“I love BGSU’s small‑town, residential‑campus feel, how many clubs and sports events keep everyone connected, and how easy it is to get involved in dorm communities, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the limited nightlife options, the colder Midwest winters, and the way the campus energy can thin out on commuter‑heavy days were all more noticeable once I stopped just visiting and started living there.”
