It seemed that I had dotted all my I's and crossed all my T's. I toured the school numerous times, I searched the internet and even this site for advice. Sure, there was the occasional negative comment that stated the student body was "closed minded" and "overly preppy", but the amount of negative comments seemed blatantly overwhelmed by the positive. I. Should. Have. Listened. I consider myself to be an open-minded individual. Greek life? No problem, although I myself am not necessarily interested, whatever floats your boat. Politics? I have my own opinion, but everyone has their own right to believe in what they choose. Drinking? No issues here. I'm a full advocate of drinking a reasonable amount, even becoming a bit intoxicated. When I came to Elon, I realized that being an open-minded individual is not only a rarity, it forces one into becoming a social recluse. Upon stating that I had no interest in joining a sorority around half of the girls who had welcomed me with open arms dissapeared into the woodwork. Upon joining a political organization on campus, I realized our numbers compared 20:300 to the other more popular political option. Also the faculty provided a blatant bias in attention and aid. Upon attending my first parties, I found that responsible drinking is nonexistent. Vomit, date rape, cocaine use, and negligent behavior is the norm at any greek affiliated function. Don't let anyone tell you differently. Although the faculty is fantastic and the curriculum is challenging, I transferred BACK to my state school after only one year of classes. In a nutshell, its a shame that the overly white, wealthy, spoiled, and entitled student body has tainted this otherwise fantastic school. Also, in my time at Elon, it became apparent to me that the school has a monumental drinking and cocaine problem. So, please take caution when considering whether or not to attend Elon. |
