My experience at Berry was totally unexpected. They sell the school very well, but have a hard time following through with what they present the institution to be. My major, Information Systems, was presented to me as new and growing, but within eight months, I found out that it had been discontinued. Nobody contacted me to let me know this. The only way I knew was from asking my advisor if the rumor I had heard was true. The faculty and students are very self-righteous. Most students come from the Atlanta area, and are rather snooty. I was mocked for my accent and the community I came from on a daily basis by students and treated as though I were less intelligent than other students by the faculty. As my advisor once confided "Most of the faculty don't know to pull their heads out of their asses." I totally agree with him. The associate provost told me that Berry believes in giving students large work loads in order to reinforce good study habits. It is definitely a teaching institution, despite what the admissions office told me. While working on campus, I saw an incredible amount of wasted money. It was painful to watch my family's money being squandered. The entire experience at Berry left me feeling as though I had been lied to. While there, I questioned whether a college degree was truly worth anything if this was all there was to it. |
