Adelphi has a lot to offer, but has an atmosphere that just doesn't provide. It is a major commuter school, so most students come for classes, and then leave. The only students who utilize the campus are the residents who have nothing to do (because they don't have a car) or the over-achievers. Living on campus can be isolating, but that makes you closer to other people in your dorm who are the same way, but if you only know people from Long Island who drive home whenever they want, you could definitlely get lonely. Because coming to class is just something to do for those who live in the area and felt like they just had to go to college after high school, it isn't always that exciting. Sometimes I do feel like I am in a class of high schoolers. I have had some horrible professors who totally give in to the bored look on students' faces and make the whole class a waste, but I have had others who can push on anyway. The Honors College is a great program to be in because it gives you a community to be a part of within the campus of commuters, but there are way too many international students all from the same eastern European countries in the program and in the end that turns out to be isolating too. If Adelphi students were involved and innovative, I think the school would be fabulous, but it seems like Adelphi will always be the convenient commuter choice. |
