Kudos to whomever added the sections concerning notable alumni and faculty.

There's a new residence hall, currently unnamed, that will open for Fall 2007.

[edit] Claim to having only commuter rail station on campus

Under the trivia section I am not sure that the claim that Bridgewater has the only commuter railroad station stop on campus is correct. At least to my knowledge, the Stonybrook station of the Long Island Rail Road on Long Island, in Stonybrook NY, is, if not on the campus proper, then at least incredibly close. All source maps indicate the station's location as being on State University of NY land, or so it appears. Can anyone clarify? If correct...amend? Dingno (talk) 06:00, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

The issue seems to lie in the use of the clarification "MBTA" later in the sentence. If you take that into consideration, it automatically excludes using colleges outside Massachusetts as an example. If you delete the clarification of "MBTA" then the sentence is erroneous. My two cents, at least. Sahasrahla (talk) 21:38, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
