Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Aerospace Engineering  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Bright 65 administratives in the University of Illinois each make $200,000 to more than $450,000 annually launched a salary freeze in the university for administrators, faculty and other academic professionals without considering how much a person earns in a year, or whether the salary is from university or some outside funding or grants. Since they make big sum of money in a year, the freezing doesn't hurt them at all. I am wondering how such persons should be elected to so high positions. Those 65 individuals earn an average of $241,067 ? and cost Purdue more than $15 million annually, or 2.5 percent of the salary budget for the University?s 15,474 employees. I say to them: "Men, stop equalization when doing bad, and stop discrimination or classification when making profits!" It is God XXXXXX! Preparedness: F, Reputation: F Have a Question?

It is all about politics for them. I had a friend who had worse academic credentials than myself but he got in just because his dad's big shot boss pulled some strings to help him get in. Regardless, i have heard their students are arrogant as hell and the faculty is just a bunch of rednecks who live in the middle of nowhere in central illinois.

The reasons being that the campus is filled with snooty White and Asian people. This place prides itself on a diverse student body (which is true, there are people of all races here), but that does not mean they are tolerant of each other. Everybody's a rich suburban or foreign exchange student dressed up in Abercrombie and The North Face in all four seasons. The people here are rude and will grimace or smirk at you if you do not look attractive. I consider this emotional abuse and it makes me feel sick dealing with such a shallow student body. On nights, between Thursday through Saturday, drunk students will party like they've found the meaning to life. Closing your windows will not help; you can still hear their wild yelps and screams, which is quite unpleasant if you are studying or sleeping. Recently construction has been going on and machinery creates astonishing rackets as early as 7 AM. The people here look down upon minorities. I can give you examples: My first year here, as I walked down the street with my friends, a white man suddenly told us to "go back to China". Then, as I walked home from the gym at night, another guy shouted from his window: "Ching-chong hamasaki!" I guess this is his way of expressing disdain for all Asian races. Not only this, but the city is at least 2 hours from any major city so get ready to stay rooted on this boring, unfriendly campus for extended periods of time. The only good thing I can think about to say about this place is the abundance of hot chicks. But they usually won't pay attention to you unless you are a pretty frat boy decked out in the latest Abercrombie fashion. It's funny how these girls fall those type of unfaithful guys. There is one time that I overheard a loud fight between a white chick and her boyfriend over him sleeping with her friends...lmao. You chose to stick with him, sweetie. Generally speaking, if you want to lose your sense of identity and waste the best years of your life, then come here for a college "education." I am very unimpressed by this overrated institution. I was unhappy my entire time here. Faculty Accessibility: B, Social Life: D- Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
