Bates is a place to LEARN not memorize. Intellectual conversations overflow at dinner and even at parties over political issues, theory, football strategy to use at the next CBB game, and what type of creative, crazy, "gathering" we can put together for the weekend. Professors and Deans really care about their students. They invite us over their houses, take us skiiing, and join us at sports events. What distinguishes Bates from other schools most is its debate team. The Brooks Quimby Debate Council is respected world-wide. The existence of the Council was the reason why I chose Bates over Bowdoin and Dartmouth. Bates has one of the oldest and is the most substantially funded debate program in the country (second to none, not even the Big H). This program attracts really interesting (and ecclectic) students-- expect to find professional wine tasters, baseball players who collect vintage books, linguistic translators, state chairs of political parties' college arms, and frustrated nudists (especially while traveling). With that said, I will be close friends with all of my team members for the rest of my life.
