So many inconveniences with this University.Not so bright
So many inconveniences with this University. I'm not even a student here. I came from Florida to work in one of the chemical engineering labs over the Summer and I am so glad I'm not staying. I don't know anything about the education quality here but everything else is just utterly terrible. The location of this university is poor in every way. It's right next to a sketch neighborhood where there's always new rumors of stabbings and the nearest grocery store is 15 minutes away by car. I've been living in Haven Hall and the place is a complete Dante's Inferno. I don't care that it's old and falling apart but the RA's aren't friendly at all and there's always people keying into your room while your gone to do room checks and clean windows. The idiots running residence life here believe surge protectors and extension cords (which are definitely needed in these rooms) are fire hazards. The worst part about residence life here by far is the shitty WIFI. About every 5 minutes I lose connection and have to reload my browser. This is with the main WIFI service here for students and it's just as bad in all the other residence halls. The only good connection spots are in classroom buildings, otherwise it's practically impossible to get anything done back in your room without going insane. Also a lot of the students here (they're not even frat stars) are complete morons, running around screaming and acting ratchet. I feel bad for anyone who has to go to school here against their will.

Question
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I LAUGH AT EVEN THE ThOUGHT OFQuite Bright
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I LAUGH AT EVEN THE ThOUGHT OF THIS SCHOOL. It is hands down the worst educational facility that anyone could possibly recieve a degree from. All the kids there are retards. I cant even begin to explain to you their level of understanding about the world around them. If you want to go to a school with a bunch of rich fucks with there mom and dads money and piss it all away in beer go ahead. O also if you plan on not ever graduating from a college of some sort this might be ur place. Or if you plan on being that guy that graduates then never continues on with his life and sticks around campus and still parties with all his "friends" then this is the place for you.
