Dorms are okay, the academics are good, and social life sucks.

Quite Bright
I just don't understand people that like RIT. I don't know what they like about? Brick city? ugly girls? boring city? Weather? ignorant faculty members? Terrible on-campus apartments? mouse hole dorms? DAMN QUARTER SYSTEM?

I mean come on? i think i made a huge mistake to transfer to RIT. I have read articles on this website before i transferred here and i was thinking that it should not be too bad. Are you freaking kidding me ? This university is designed to take 4-5 years out of your life. I am not Joking. Some people referred it is what you make out of it, that is completely BS. Quality of education? You must be kidding me ? I have to learn everything myself, do you think i can get all those labs done with the help of stupid PowerPoints?

I go to class, instructor shows PowerPoints, and i go to lab and write a lab report and done. Do you think he deserves his salary ? My instructor comes to class drinks his coffee and reads from slides and i complete labs. Some of you might say right now, so why the hell are you doing in RIT then? because i moved here and i can not go back bec of financial reasons.Otherwise i would be gone long long time ago believe me.

Parties? I mean sausage festivals ? yeah just attend one of them you will know what i am talking about. Sport clubs, how the hell i am gonna find time to play sports with this busy schedule? I bough a $100 book 700 pages and instructor only goes 200 pages in 10 weeks quarter, so why i paid that money for 200 pages? i don't know, i was told to do so. Some people referred about co-op :) What if i don't want to go to co-op? let me graduate and find a job myself? Let me get the hell out of RIT and then find a job myself, and put my diploma that i had co-op and i did not have co-op. So what ? Bottom line is, i don't like RIT at all, some courses are fun but overall don't come to this school to be miserable for 4-5 years in your life. Go to different school and enjoy your life. You will only live this life once, and enjoy every single minute of it.
