A largely underestimated small College smack dab in the middle of the gray area between Plymouth-Meeting and Philadelphia. It is an establishment without a home, with students without identities.
Because of this unique characteristic, students and faculty alike are enabled to truly be themselves, and not generic, pop-societal influenced robots. However, many first-year students often find the school to be completely boring, because it isn't their definition of the "typical party school".
Chestnut Hill College (and this is important, all you manufactured, bleached-blonde tools out there) is NOT a party school. It is what you make of it. If one want to throw a party on Thursday and not get busted, have to attend a judicial hearing, face possible fines, etc..., simple caution, a little maturity, and congenial relations with the guards are all one needs.
It is a place where personality and attitude are currency. If you're down to earth, honest, and have something sembling a sense of humor, you can and will (most likely) get by. If you're the average, run-of-the-mill douchebag and/or tool, chances are, you'll be exploited and eventually form a very negative opinion about the school. This is because... well... douchebags and/or tools form negative opinions about anything that doesn't completely mesh with their shallow, almost non-existant personalities.
Chestnut Hill College is a school that preaches a strict rule system for the sake of political correctness / parental comfort. The blindingly obvious truth to anybody attending, however: Chestnut Hill College is a young, constantly growing and evolving infant of an educational institution. As a student of Chestnut Hill, I can honestly say that this is a place where you can leave your mark, and that mark is substantial enough to determine the course of change and evolution at the school.
You can be whoever you want to be here. It's a fresh start for those that need it, and a perfect place to continue being the person you love. You can be someone here.
Thank God for Positivity.
Haters: "I made some of the greatest friends of my life at a small 'garbage, no fun, bullshit, dirty, run down school' known as Chestnut Hill College. I guess it doesn't help that I'm a downer and a loser with no future. And my girlfriends a whore. The end."
Objective human beings that have actually experienced the college: "Chestnut Hill is a place to grow, and find yourself, as cheezy and cliche as that sounds. It's actually true here though, clown."
