  Perhaps most miserable is the beloved pasttime of standing smoking and staring in such provincial pretense

  Not a fan. This college has the worst vibes around. I met a ton of people there, how many actually friendly people maybe 2... maybe... if I'm lucky. But all the students have weird college vibes to them that doesn't seem pleasing and the whole campus is just a place they can do whatever the heck they want like sharing a bathroom. I was taking a pee and something walked in. Man, Woman... idk and i don't think I wanted to know I held it in and got out lol but it does have a good mother nature around it

  Beautiful campus with great architecture. There is also an amazing canyon with a lake and nice walking trail. Also Reed students are the smartest.

  Reed College is academically demanding, although insular and often depressing. A small number of Reed graduates go into medicine, law, engineering, finance. The majority go into sundry careers like computer programming, library science, freelance writing, and beer-making. But Reed is best suited for students who, out of high school, are confident they want to become academics. For anyone thinking of applying to this school, please read the Alumni Notes section of any Reed Magazine to get a flavor, and then compare with other schools. Reed's isolation and over-emphasis on intellectualism for its own sake make the place is an ivory tower. It also does little to prepare graduates for decent, well-paying jobs. Reed students who are capable, ambitious, and have significant talent and superior scores on GREs, LSATs, and MCATs, will sometimes be hindered because computer screening algorithms and admissions officers in graduate and professional schools often don't know or care that Reed has more stringent grading standards than other schools. The Reed ethos is characterized by students who have an exaggerated belief about how iconoclastic, liberal and free-thinking they are. The self-indulgent, counter-culture miasma quickly gets old. "Atheism, Communism, Free Love," after several decades now, is as stale as hard tack. Peer pressure to endorse these values and to cultivate a bohemian image also yield an irony: while Reed prides itself on being off-beat, it's not a place where one who disagrees with aspects of the Reed norm can feel comfortable. An equally good education can be obtained at a more conventional school that has more resonance with the rest of society. There are myriad alternatives for a more balanced life, for friendship, and for the development of critical thinking skills: any of the Ivy Leagues; most of the highly-ranked US News and World Report liberal arts colleges; and many state schools, some of which have liberal arts programs that try to capture the feel of life in a small college.

  I had a chance to do the prospective student tour for a friend who's daughter was visiting. The event was well planned and the tour guide an excellent demonstration for what a Reed education could provide. She was well spoken, a good leader, and honest. Not to mention that the campus is beautiful! If you visit, check out the thesis room. It is a time capsule of all who came before.
