Looking to attend a school that offers nothing for its students after hours? Looking to risk having your stuff stolen in your on campus apartment? Maybe have your car broken into in the unprotected lot? What about attend a college in the middle of an industrial town that hasn't updated anything in 15 years? Then attend Penn State Harrisburg.

The problem is the social experience at Penn state harrisburg. The school is placed in the middle of a dying industrial area. There is literally nothing to do off campus after 9pm. Do you know why? Everyone that lives in the town hates the fact that a college is there. The township does nothing to increase what it offers and the police force will do everything possible to make your life a living hell. Considering they offer nothing else, you may want to attend a party. What if its just to network and have one drink? Nope. Don't do it. They WILL find something to get you in trouble for, even if you are of age. The police don't want you in their town to begin with (and they'll even tell you this) so if they can find charges to press they will.

Let's go back to the theft. I knew about 8 people that had expensive electronics stolen out of their apartment on campus. I even knew multiple people that had the windows of their car broken to steal car stereos. You would think that campus security would have cameras that could catch this type of thing. No, at least not as of 2008. Let's just hope you have insurance that covers theft and you enjoy filing claims.

Let's go a different route entirely - what if you like to stay up late to study? Let's hope that you have roommates that aren't obnoxious, because if they are and you want to go somewhere else to study - you can't! The library closes at 11 (except for a tiny section with five computers) and there is NOWHERE else to go. Not on campus and not off of campus - no coffee shop, no bookstore.

I'll give you this, the professors are great, in fact - the whole academic side of the school is great. The campus looks nice, the food is fine, the apartments are impressive, and the classes and labs really are informative. The rest of it is awful. At least it was when I attended - maybe they made some changes. But I know that looking back at when I was there, I wish I had chosen to spend that part of my life elsewhere.
