Though I've met a lot of really great friends and had a lot of fun so far, I think that attending RIT was a bad decision. I'm sure you've heard all of the rumors about a strong presence of warcraft addicts that don't even bother to shower or leave class. Well, there is a surprising amount of truth to that rumor…many kids on my floor play video games at least twelve hours a day, and certain sections of my hall smell terrible because these people can't even find the time to shower. I think the reason that this is so common is that RIT offers almost nothing to do outside of class.

There is no football team.

There are no (good) parties.

There are roughly five attractive girls on campus.

Speaking of parties, if you do manage to find one, usually in the colony manor or park point apartments, it will be mostly guys and will probably be broken up by campus safety at some point.

As if that isn't bad enough, RIT doesn't really even offer strong academics to make up for the quality of life. Most freshman level classes are taught by random faculty who don't care about the subject or the students. All of my major specific classes are extremely slow paced and boring while my core credits are very challenging. Small classes do nothing to improve your education…professors don't care about their students at all and they do little to hide it. Also, all of those "open for students" labs look great on the tour, but try to use a computer sometime and let me know how it works out for you. Even when I have class in the labs, there aren't enough computers for everyone.

Some tips:

  • If you know anyone from high school ROOM WITH THEM, don't risk getting a WoW addict
  • Make friends at nearby University of Rochester- they have actual parties and girls
  • When choosing a meal plan, get the one with the fewest gracies meals and the most debit possible. Gracie's is even worse than the rest of the food here, which also really sucks
  • Find out about your professors before you register for a class… there are some REALLY bad professors here
  • Dorms are about ten square feet so don't bring much stuff
  • This place is every bit as weird as people make it seem
