BC is a popular choice for students looking for a suburban mid-sized college, especially those who want fun sports traditions, service opportunities, and no Greek life.

Harvard, Penn, and Cornell all have interim presidents. None of these universities have begun searching for permanent leaders. Former presidents at these Ivies fell victim to political pressures stemming from campus protests around free speech and antisemitism.
