Statistical Analyzer:

As a transfer student coming from a larger, more established university, I am disappointed with the so-called "college experience" that I am receiving from Marymount. Having previously attended a school with a well-grounded educational background and a sometimes overwhelming social scene, Marymount leaves much to be desired. Thus far I have encountered an array of disappointments:

The student body is comprised mostly of continuing education and international students which isn't always negative, but it does make it difficult to feel as if you truly fit into the campus community. Most of the students that attend the university commute and it is easy to feel as if there is never anything to do. In my experiences, I have found the majority of students to be high maintenece and rather ignorant and narrow minded. The crudentials for admission are relatively low…the campus is an eye-sore…administration is a nightmare… and I don't even want to touch the parking issue!

As an interior design major (which is one of the boasted programs at MU) I feel as if I am being overcharged for an education that lacks the quality I had expected. For the most part, my professors seem to be knowledgable but that doesn't mean they're helpful. While some professors feel it's necessary to hold your hand through the education process,others haven't the slightest clue how to actually teach.

I have been told that Marymount students graduating from the Interior Design department do not always fair well in the career market. Despite the demand for interior designers in the metropolitan area, it is said that MU students resumes end up on the bottom of the pile…kind of sad when you spend $26000 a year.

On a more positive note…Marymount's interior design program is accredited by FIDER and has private endowments which allows the department to buy what the school doesn't provide…that is, if the department would actually spend some of the endowment instead of just sitting on it and waiting until every last piece of equipment falls apart before feeling compelled to do something about it!

My favorite part about Marymount though would have to be the Catholic influence. Despite their religious foundations and Catholic affiliation, the school is not in-your-face about Catholicism. I enjoy that in every classroom you find a crucifix and that religion is not a prohibited topic of discussion but is something both students and teachers are free to discuss in an open-minded manner…although you are rarely likely to engage in any form of intellegent religious conversation with the majority of students. At least it's nice to know you can if you wanted to!
