its pretty legit if its your style. the way it seems to me is UVM is for the masses and Champlain is more for whoever doesnt want to be part of a huge school. i dont really know how to describe it, i guess its just like your tour guides probably said, its more personal. the upside down curriculum is legit if you know what you want to do, if youre undecided though, its probably not the best.... what else is there... uhhhhh... oh, fuck core classes, but they arent that bad, youll get over it.
