Quite Bright
9 out of 10 classes have been disorganized, the professors have been difficult to reach, often not responding to email for days weeks or ever. I am in the masters program for nursing (ARNP). Every studnet I have spoke to, buth currently in the program and ones that have graduated. My experience has been universal. Avoid the nursing program at USF if you have another option.

Not so bright
Lately, I've been reading (over several months) from The Oracle (the university newspaper) that the university professors are threatening lawsuit against the university for misappropriation of money. These certain professors are truly committed to teaching at the university, and honestly, after meeting them and giving some thought about the university, I think I'm going to transfer. The university (and the state of Florida) is making the academic experience deplorable. If the professors are not happy with the university, then....I think you get the story.

Hmm... These reviews are very interesting. I am a freshmen here and I just had to post. It is 3:30 in the morning (the day after St. Patty's) and I can here someone outside my room talking about how they got kicked out of a club. Someone mentioned screaming at 3 in the morning. Well, that's true and there seems to be quite the fascination with big trucks at this school. One in particular has a frighteningly loud horn that will wake you out of your sleep. My mom has a house in Tampa but since I live in the new dorms (Magnolia Hall) I usually stay here for the weekend. It is true, however, that a fair number of students leave. I'm starting to realize that Tampa is not the best college town. I'm originally from Fort Myers so I do enjoy the big city but it's lacking. As for academics, profs, and classes: it's a mixed bag. I haven't been here long enough to really get a feel for everything. My English teacher (she was African-American btw, if that matters) really became irritating. She kept talking about how she could shop at all these expensive stores like Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom. My ethics teacher was very snooty as well. She was the odd ball female philosopher. She had to tell us of her wealthy upbringing- how she went to Duke and was successful and seemed to disparage the class. She also was clearly conservative and was trying to push her ideas on us. Other than that, they were fine. Certainly respectable and intelligent. I also had some experience with poor speakers of English. My math teacher and my chem lab TA. I guess that's expected though.
