SoccerPlus Camper Quote: |
"Liked the campus very much.
The facilities were nice and safe as
well as close together (which is
good when you get tired)." "They
were great fields with a couple soft
spots. The FOOD WAS THE BEST I'VE
EVER HAD AT A COLLEGE CAMPUS!! And
the dorms, newly renovated, were
great, especially for someone out of
state like myself!"
"Bowdoin was great, everything
was clean and the fields were as
flat and soft." |
|
SoccerPlus Staff Quote: |
"Food was unbelievable. Dorms
new and nice."
"The new dorms at Bowdoin are
outstanding. The fields were very
short and well maintained. The
food...well, you know: ridiculous!." |

About
the Cafeteria: |
Voted one of the top 3 food services
by informal SoccerPlus staff survey
2007 along with Colgate University
and Roger Williams University. Our
staff must be pretty sharp, because
The Princeton Review
gave Bowdoin the #1 food ranking
among all colleges in the U.S.
What's so
important about dining at Bowdoin?
"At Bowdoin, we believe we have an important role
to play in the life of our students.
They're here to get an exceptional
education and we're here to support
their efforts by providing great
food, friendly service and a
comfortable, collegial atmosphere."

About
the
Dorms: |
Coleman Hall
A number of factors account for
Coleman's graceful proportions: the
entranceways are placed on the long
side, punctuating the long rows of
windows. The fenestration above the
doors, which illuminates the
stairways, extends two stories in an
unbroken expanse of small panes.
This area is further defined by a
recessed panel. Just below the flat
roof is a short brick parapet. Below
this a strongly profiled cornice and
a granite stringcourse mark off the
attic story from the rest of the
floors. On both Gibson and Coleman
this device serves to further the
illusion of delicacy so that the two
buildings are comparable in their
informal scale. |
