Hi, I'm Amber S. and I am a freshman at Pine Manor College, located at Chestnut Hill, MA. I am a graduate of Boston Latin School, which is the oldest public school in the United States. I have been at Pine Manor College for a month and a half, and I am enjoying my time here. Honestly, in some sense, I didnt care what college I went to, but in some sense it did matter. Pine Manor offered what I needed; a warm environment, small classes, and a community that was close knitted. At my Boston Latin School, I had a lot of support from teachers and guidence counselors, but there was over 2, 500 students, and I believe its easier at Pine Manor for proffessors to keep track of their students. My dad, was impressed with the college, and also believed that it would be a good environment for me. My sister, who is 41, went to Simmons College, and said that she enjoyed her time there, and I figured that an all-girl school would be calming.
Pine Manor was founded in 1911 (I read the whole handbook the first day I got here), and the school colors are green and white. Althought it is a small school, it is very competive when it comes to sports. I always see girls running off to soccer, or volleyball pratice. According to the USnews, Pine Manor is ranked among the most diverse campuses in the world for the past 8 years. I think the diversity part attracted me to the most to the college, and I am happy I am attending here.
