"What I love best about the quality of education at Trent has to be the teacher/student ratio. It is one of the lowest in Canada, if not the lowest. All of my seminar leaders/TA's know me by name."

"Every class has seminars or labs connected to the lectures -- makes learning much more effective."

"The slogan was, for years, 'Canada's small outstanding university.' Ever since the administration has ruled that 'The World Belongs to Those Who Understand It,' Trent has become no longer small nor outstanding."

"Trent is a very welcoming university that gives everyone the benefit of the doubt."

"I enjoy the fact that the Trent campus has a lot of trees and nature. We also have the Otonabee River running through the campus, which is very appealing. In all seasons except winter, there are always students playing music and playing various games."

"I'm a big fan of the architecture here. The modernist/geometric shapes contrast really well with the very organic setting."

"The community atmosphere for students leaving home for the first time. It's an easy adjustment for them and it's often overlooked in recruiting."

"There doesn't seem to be a lot of school spirit. Our athletic program is very limited. We don't have a hockey team or a football team."
