The idiot below me said that the onlyNot so bright
The idiot below me said that the only people who comment here do so because they are unhappy and want to complain...but isn't she commenting here? Seems to me like stupidity oozes from all the students who like Elon.

Fact: If you look at other schools on this website, most of them actually get very positive reviews. So no, people do not come on here just to complain. In fact, the opposite appears to be true. This is why when a school is getting regularly panned by a variety of different students, it is obviously because there is something very wrong.

I actually do understand how some people could like it here. There is very little work, most of the students are white and rich, and it is very similar to high school. So if someone likes those things, then they would probably like Elon. My only concern is finding a job after I graduate, since Elon is a joke to most employers and has a horrible reputation nationally.What is really the problem is individuals like the previous poster who come on here because they are upset that their school sucks, and feel the need to defend it to the world. If you like it so much, great, but for the majority of Elon students that clearly have buyer's remorse, stop being so patronizing and let us be when we are trying to give prospective students accurate information about how horrible Elon is.
