In high school I was the over achiever; a three sport athlete, president of NHS, and my class vice president. I thought being at a small school like Emmanuel would help me shine in college too. Boy, was I wrong. Once I got to college, I realized that I didn't want high school part 2, and that's exactly what it's like at Emmanuel. Living in Boston, I wanted to become independent, and they don't encourage that at all. First off, though having small class sizes has its advantages, I absolutely loathe the fact that I see the same faces every day. Being at a small college means you either know everyone, or you know their face. It's very high school-y for that reason. You know everyone's business, and a lot of the people are snobby and unfriendly- not all, but a good handful. There are times when I would love to grab a tea at the cafe and sit and read a book, but everyone stares at you if you are alone.Secondly, the orientation leaders are terribly click-y. At orientation I looked up to them, even wanted to be one eventually, but when I got to school, I found out a good handful of them are rude and the other half don't even acknowledge your existence.The friends I have made are great, but they aren't what I expected. I thought I'd have intriguing conversations with people about film, language and world travel. A lot of the guys here are "lax bros" and tools, and the girls are slutty and have no self-respect. The rest are silently praying until they can transfer.I will say, most of the professors I had my first semester were great, I found my favorite, and were always very helpful. My American Art teacher however is a crabby old woman who only likes boys, and trust me, they milk her for all she?s worth.I never thought I'd want to transfer. I was always the peppy girl with school spirit-which Emmanuel lacks immensely- and now I can't wait to transfer. I?m applying to a larger school in Boston, because I still love the city, but I want a real University experience.All in all, Emmanuel College was a disappointment, and a real learning experience. After spring semester, I hope to never have to set foot on campus again. I'll miss the people, but I won't be too far away. Emmanuel has a dishonest administration (I know as I work in one of the offices where I experience it every day) and when I see tours, I see the kids fall for the same lies the school fed me. I'm taking it as a learning experience, and getting the heck out of dodge. |
