Pros

You will have great experiences meeting intellectuals and celebrities. The campus environment is wonderful. The staff is hard working.

Cons

Spelman is a closed nit society. In order to fit in you have to kiss or be far up administrations behind or at least look the part. Folks are so obsessed with what you wear as an assessment of your status or intellect. If you are not well-dressed or fit into their high society attributes you are are listed as an outcast and not spoken to. They have folks in administration that have been getting over for years without much work or effort, but they are well rewarded and excel in positions for all the wrong reasons. There are folks in administration that live off of the hard work of people in subordinate positions, but are never recognized.
