Question
People talk about how great the weather isNot so bright
People talk about how great the weather is in Arizona, but in my opinion it's not that great. Everything in AZ is a mirage. During summer you look outside through a window and see the sun shining and think to yourself, wow that's really nice but the instant you step outside, you cringe because you're feeling the 115 degree heat. Yeah, winters aren't bad but who wants to have their A/C in their car running during the holidays. If you're from the east coast or the midwest you'd probably like that. Most of the people from AZ are obsessed with Hollister Clothing and Abercrombie. They think their stylish because they have a Hollister shirt that has some reference from CA or the beach on it. Being from CA and growing up near the beach, I think that's lame. I couldn't picture myself wearing a desert shirt that has Sedona printed all over it. The girls who are tan usually have fake tans and a lot of the girls are superficial as well as insecure. Don't get me wrong, some of the girls are really attractive but it's not like ASU is full of super models. Every college has pretty girls. A lot of the guys think their tough and they try to act like they're surfers. I don't think they realize that they live in the DESERT. As far as Tempe goes, it's not that great. Outside of the campus, the rest of the city is kind of ghetto. I thought attending ASU would be different. Needless to say, everything in Arizona is a mirage. You think you're getting one thing, but it's far from reality. I don't know, maybe I'm just a hater.

Question
In the program of Electrical Engineering, it isQuite Bright
In the program of Electrical Engineering, it is difficult to find proper english speaking professors. The math program is incredibily difficult and it doesn't help that I haven't had an english-as-first-language professor. A little frustrating when you pay out-of-state tuition for a good education and only get the education because you work your butt off. Alot of people are snooty and hide behind their sunglasses on a sunny day(everyday). But the campus is beautiful and you will find some cool people every once and awhile.
