Bowdoin: The Good, the Bad, and the HonestIf you're looking to avoid the city for a few years and don't want to be another little fish in a big pond, Bowdoin is a solid locale. Odds are you're going to be sucking down urban/suburban smog for a good portion of your life, so if you enjoy winter sports (ski season is late Nov. to late Apr.) or are looking for a laid back East Coast atmosphere with plenty of brains to go around, it definitely might be for you.
