Reading about Kent can be exciting but it's when you come to visit campus that you start to truly understand this place. It starts with the lovely old Georgian brick buildings, the Berkshire foothills and the Housatonic Valley and the river that winds through the center of everything. It's simply beautiful, gorgeous even. And the warmth and energy of the faculty and students are palpable and vibrant in a way that defies written description—you've just got to feel it for yourself.

Of course when you come here, you'll get to actually walk into classrooms and studios, and onto playing fields. You can check out the biotech lab (where you can see if your corn chips are genetically modified!), or visit the awesome new fitness center (where you can modify your muscles with some different technology). You can pause for a moment in the cool stillness of the chapel or check out "the sandbox," what we call the center of campus, where everybody gathers. You can visit your tour guide's room and get a feel for what it's like to live and learn at Kent. You might even start to take note of all the different ways students have decorated their tablet computers.

When you're done touring the school, it's a short walk, "into town," as we say. The town of Kent itself is a great little place, with tons to do, including lots of places to stay and places to eat. And whether you need directions to drive yourself or someone to drive you, you're sure to find Kent an easy place to get into, both literally and figuratively.
