|  | Quite Bright | I am a freshman at UD this year, and I can honestly say I really haven't enjoyed my experience. I went to a smaller private school throughout highschool and after touring UD I thought it would be the perfect place for me. Boy, was I mistaken. I feel like they sugarcoat everything on the tours; the school isn't really like that. I have NOT found many friendly people at all--everyone is mildly trashy, from new jersey, and drinks copious amounts of alcohol (yet still somehow remain extremely dull). I haven't found anyone with anything good or worthwhile to say. And yes, what you hear is true, the "going out" scene is at first great, parties all over Cleveland Street...but they get SO OLD SO QUICKLY. They are basically all frat parties and are SO crowded and ridiculous that they are so uncomfortable and un-fun and depressing. Ugh. Out of State is insanely expensive too, same with in-state!! Not worth the price at ALL...especially if you are english/history/communications based. It's a good engineering school, I'll give it that, but that's IT. Needless to say, I need a huge scholarship from the other places I've applied but I NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE. I just cannot do it. Then again, some people really love it. Haha. It's just not for me. And the food sucks. And all there is to do in Newark is go on Main Street, which is about the length of 2 football fields. I visited every place on the street by the end of the second day of school. | Scholastic Success: A+, Education Quality: F |  | | |

|  | Quite Bright | this is too ironic. i graduated in 1994 and the place sounds exactly the same. faculty more concerned with tenure and publishing, socially maladjusted students ie. it's a giant high school, the rape problem (how is this still going on?, now violent crime has become a problem...... i have not read any mention of it, maybe the indoctrination is complete and no one knows different but political correctness was in full swing when i was there. now imagine "college" history classes taught, hah!, by the thought police. by spring of my sophmore year i knew i had made a mistake but pressed on. i remember i took intro to biological anthropology to fullfill a requirement, it claimed to discuss why certain races look like they do, gentic/biological and enviromental reasons. i remember thinking this would be cool. the LAST day of class we get a ~5 minute speech about people look different and none are better than the other. that was it. it was something you would tell kindergartners, which is either a refelection of the contempt of the faculty holds for the students, or the realization that most a the students are not up to snuff. if you are out of state and got in, that means you have the academic credentials to go somewhere else. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! now if you want to put off life for 5 or 6 years. go. you'll drink and drug it up. it'll be expensive and you'll pay for it later down the line. representatives like to claim delaware is an ivy league school in everything but name. do not believe it. it is a public university, no more no less. | Campus Aesthetics: A, Individual Value: F |  | | |
