I have been facingBrightEnglish
I have been facing issues with my roommate and no one on campus will help to move me out. I feel helpless and unsafe and no one listens.

Question
Ok so I can say that I've hadBrightUndecided
Ok so I can say that I've had mostly all good professors here and enjoyed my time academically as well have met some good friends and made some fun memories. However this is an honest review of social party scene as that is something I wanted to know about before choosing a school when i was in high school. So everything is pretty much off campus at crappy houses or apartments. Downtown Westfield is an eye sore. This school is very clique and a lot of kids form groups based on where they come from lot of eastern mass kids stick together or athletes. It's funny how arragont and dillusional a lot of athletes are here it's d3 your not going pro, and how they think there hot stuff. It's honestly a high school like environment. Football team sucks "at football and as people. Regarding Parties you generally have to know someone who has a house and better have a good amount of attractive girls as your friends or else you'll be walking around downtown Westfield with homeless people all night. Police are everywhere act like your friend but love busting college kids. Regarding any big party you here about either get there early or don't go cause it's probably going to be shut down. Bars on Thursday night are actually really fun but will cost you a lot of money. The walk downtown if you dare try it is about 35 to 50 minutes depending how fast you go. I've done it drunk a couple times wasn't the end of world but wouldn't recommend. Honestly party wise this school isn't worth going to if that's an important factor in your search. The party scene is only good if you play a sport,know a lot of people before going here, or are an attractive girl. Honestly the best option. Is to rent a house with friends so you can control the party's but than there are massive fines for parties so good luck.overall just go to umass
