Pros

The resources here are incredible, the environment is wonderful. It is almost too perfect. It is easy to get work done here. It is not hard to see why some of the greatest minds of our time work(ed) here. There are many nice activities going on (besides academic ones) to keep you busy when you're not pondering by the pond.

Cons

You can feel quite secluded, since there are no students walking around the campus and the Institute is located on a farm near the woods. This can take some getting used to. Health insurance is extremely expensive, but they are currently working to fix this.
