What is Boston College?
1.
Not a college, but a university and not located in Boston, but just outside. A prestigious Jesuit institution that has one of the most beautiful college campuses. It is very competitive, and is referred to as BC for short.
Student 1: I'm so excited I got into BC!
Student 2: Whatever...I'm going to
Boston University .
Student 1: Really? Sucks to B.U.!

a place with gothic architecture, where jesuits and other freakishly intelligent people try to teach collar-popping, plex-obsessed, hopelessly drunk and self-centered rich folks' kids. just kidding. that only applies to about 90% of the bc population.
boston college isn't that bad.

Boston College is a school that is small enough so that walking around you always run into people you know, but large enough so that there are always new people to meet. BC is a great school, located in a great location, and although there are a few spoiled rich kids at BC, you realize that there is also a good number of stand up people at BC. BC has a stong academic background, good athletics (minus their amazing choking ability), and an underrated party scene.
And for the record I didn't apply to Notre Dame, nor did I ever have a desire to spend 4 years in bumblecrap Southbend.
"BC is losing to Syracuse?"
"Syracuse? But Temple beat Syracuse! Temple!"
"Let's go back to the mods"
