Holy Crap - Sounds Almost Too Nice, December 13, 2004
This review is from: Bowdoin College: Off the Record (College Prowler) (College Prowler: Bowdoin College Off the Record) (Paperback)
The College Prowler Guide to Bowdoin College gave me a really good perspective to what my experience would be like if I attended the picturesque New England college. The 160+ plus guidebook read more like a conversational piece in a newspaper then a guidebook. College Prowler combines student input, student author editorial, facts, and a grade together perfectly to give any prospective student a all inclusive look into what college life in Suburban Maine is really like.
The detail in which College Prowler and it's author for the book went into is startling. No other resource on the market is nearly as comprehensive with as many student opinions packed into one place. You can tell that the author pained himself in making sure every point of view is represented in the book in order to paint the best picture of how four years at Bowdoin will change your life.
Read every word of every section. If you do, there is no way to overlook this school; Bowdoin combines so many great things into one place for it's 1600+ student body. The best concept conveyed in this book is the passion and zest for life that the student body has and how it works so well with the faculty, staff, and administration.
You will not be disappointed that you bought this book!!! It made me want to attend Bowdoin so much.

bowdoin!, May 13, 2005
This review is from: Bowdoin College: Off the Record (College Prowler) (College Prowler: Bowdoin College Off the Record) (Paperback)
In searching for colleges, I have found that looking at school's websites and leafing through brochures are not enough, and visiting all the schools that I am interested is not physically or financially possible. Purchasing a few of these guide books has allowed me to get an insiders view of the school and feel as if I were actually talking to current students.
