I realize it seems that I simply put Fs for nearly every category but I did put thought into those answers. Approaching graduation I am reflecting back on my experience. For $30K+ a year, I feel sick and disheartened.

I have encountered about three good professors here at RIT. Most of the other professors are not experts in their fields. At the same time, they're not good at presenting material. Some professors know the material but aren't adequate educators.

The best part of RIT was the friends I made. I learned more from/with my friends than I did from most of my classes. I do feel I was fortunate for meeting them during my freshman year.

Furthermore, academic advising leaves a lot to be desired. The curriculum is not very complicated but I expected the advisors to be the expert resources I could use to decide my future. The advisors were cold and unapproachable. I felt guilty asking too many questions. I had to have very specific questions to get any sort of answer from them. They weren't very useful for guidelines at all.

The curriculum for the CS program, flat out, sucks. The majority of the courses are useless. Until my last year I did not have a chance to take courses I enjoyed and were interested in. I did not experience any "wow" classes; nothing that pushed the boundaries of my skill or the boundaries of technology.

The CS classes were not challenging. Advanced math courses were more difficult and physics courses required me to do work. CS classes were easy and I hardly put forth any effort and still received As and Bs (while working 30 hours a week). Oh yeah, most courses consist of busy work (hence the F for that category).

I honestly paid for a piece of paper that claims I know anything.

Thats just my experience. Happy college hunting!
