There have been way too many professors in the Department of Biological Sciences that do not speak English as their first language, thus making it very hard to learn anything. These professors who do not speak English are also unavailable and unwilling to answer our questions and expect us to just know everything. Like hello, we cannot understand you. I also had one professor who would constantly tell us he cannot look at us because we are not "of his intelligence level". That is not what my money is going to. He should be fired for the way he treated his Organic Chemistry II class last Spring.

Other than those two instances with those specific professors, I love everything about being on this campus. It has helped my grow to become the person that I have always wanted to be. Also, a word of advice to the incoming freshman, please be smart around campus. We hate getting blown up with Pirate Alerts as much as everyone else.

With the new president, Esteban, student life at this school has increased immensely. There's a lot offered on campus. The experience is what you make it and the school provides a great community for intellectual pursuits and plenty of social interaction.

SETON HALL SUCKS. Plain and Simple. Dont be fooled by the nice landscaping on campus because the education is crap.

Most students who don't transfer do not do so because they cannot afford to go elsewhere or it is convenient to stay. All the school's money goes towards sports, gym equipment, landscaping, and whoever else is pocketing it.

When visiting Shu, they put on a big show talking about the history of the school how successful its basketball team was in the past etc etc. In the past Shu was a good school, but now it sucks. The social life and education quality is very low. You do NOT get what you paid for.

Most professors are students or adjunct professors-- they dont know how to lecture/ teach their subject at all. On the plus side most of them are somewhat friendly. But im going to school to learn, not make friends with pseudo-professors.

Shu accepts 80% of applicants! why? idk but just about any idiot can get in.
Robberies every couple weeks-- every student is notified because of the shu alert system. last semester a student was shot in a college apartment close to campus. so def NOT A SAFE AREA being so close to Newark.

The college campus is small, smaller than my hs campus. The size wouldn't bother me if it wasnt for the fact that there is never anything going on on campus. Most of the events that do go on are lame because almost no students attend them.

The student body itself is very inactive. I tried to join several clubs and all of them [except for maybe one or two] were just a bunch of students in a classroom talking about their weekend.

Besides a inactive student body, shu is a suitcase school- meaning 90% of students who live on campus go home on weekends. The campus is DEAD on weekends.

Needless to say-- shu doesnt have any fun parties going on when everyone is away on weekends/ cant organize clubs. Seton Hall is LAME and the education SUCKS. go somewhere else if you can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
