“I love Detroit Mercy’s urban‑Catholic vibe, how close everyone feels in small classes and the Titan‑sports culture, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the split between commuters and residents, the sometimes‑slow campus‑life calendar, and the way the surrounding neighborhood can feel a bit rough after dark were all more noticeable once I stopped just visiting and started living there.”
