The best thing about Lasell is the size of the school. While some might feel cramped in a small institute, this also gives you a chance to become well acquainted with members of your class; as well as the student body in general.
The worst thing about Lasell is it's somewhat indifference towards student activities. There are programs and events on weekends but there is really no place for students to relax in between classes or in the evenings.
