Ninth Square Market Caribbean is insane value. The $15 large plate can easily be split as two healthy portions, and you're getting a smorgasbord of delicious food.

Also can't really go wrong with just getting pizza. $20 for a large cheese at Modern or $13 for a large cheese at 163 is value town for the amount and quality you get.

I know it's not a university. But still...even SCSU has its good points. I liked being there, and the library is small, but it has cool stuff.

Went to SCSU as well. 60% of the time the professor never showed up, for my last two semesters (whats most important). Didn't learn anything relevant lol

few guys play lounge nights (spinning vinyls) at best video in hamden that might be up your alley

Because by any objective fact it is. It’s a 2 year school, to start with.

That doesn’t make it not useful, but there’s nothing that it wins at outside of cheap and easy.

I’m a big fan of the community college system, but objectively by almost any measure how do you not say it’s the worst school in town?

Although I’d point out it also doesn’t qualify for the question isn’t it isn’t a university.

It’s exempt by state and federal law. And no, not unless you’re conflating YNHH and YU, it’s not.

Hi! I go by DJ Nihilist & I'm part of a crew of Connecticut DJs called Ikkibu Project, we play & throw some shows in NH & other cities relatively regularly. Tho we primarily focus on more uptempo genres like Dubstep and DnB, a good portion of us LOVE downtempo electronic and would be super excited about the opportunity to play some chiller vibes. I'm going to reach out in the DMs, I'd love hear more about your vision & see if we might be able to achieve it together :)

Live close to the West Hartford location, and used to love walking my dog there in the morning and picking up some beans for home -- was a great deal for a full pound of excellent beans. Unfortunately shrinkflation hit and they started charging just a little more for smaller bags of beans, 12 oz. Maybe they expanded too soon? Also, they used to give a free drip coffee when you bought a bag of beans, but no more. I still grab a latte there from time to time, and the workers are great, but I've begun buying my beans elsewhere, unfortunately.

SCSU because they failed me internship wise. Probably just me though. Cheap school.

Yale is not comparable to other non-profit universities (aside from Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, etc). They have the second largest endowment in the country at over $42 billion…

For context, 20-30 minutes away at Quinnipiac (where president Lahey set a record for highest-paid college president ever), the endowment is under $1 billion.

Yale has too good of a deal with the city of New Haven, and owes more to the city’s residents.

Alumni and you ain’t wrong lol

Those are also Yalies.

But in summer the weird, unfamiliar homeless people come out.

Albertus Magnus. Not as accessible as SCSU, not as prestigious or economically significant as Yale. What's it got going for it?

*state law, not city law. I would point out that this is true for essentially all non-profit universities across the country. They are also, as non-profits, exempt from federal taxes.

Dumb question. It’s obviously where ever the person asking this question went. I graduated from SCSU. I have a degree and not a shit load of debt.

Fucking Yale.

Why do you say that ?

Townie summer!

Please make this happen

Yale

Gateway Community College.

Definitely yale. New Haven is the best in the summer when they all leave
