Saint Joseph's was a great school that helped me in many ways with regards to learning more about humanities and becoming a worldly individual. Although my overall experience was not excellent, it was a good choice for undergraduate that offered many positive experiences. I'm happy that I attended Saint Joseph's as it was how I met many of best friend and close colleagues who are open-minded and caring individuals. The culture is very friendly and open; people have a certain warmth to them there.
