If you are a commuter, do not let the Commuter Advocates convince you that commuters are welcome on campus. I am very outgoing and put strong efforts into fitting in on campus … and I was unbelievably disappointed to find out how much B.S. it was.

  • Security makes it too difficult for freshman to spend time with other freshman in the first weeks of school (the crucial time for making friends).
  • The only questions students care to ask are "What year are you?" "Where do you live?" "Do you go out?" If you do not go out at night (which is difficult because students living on campus are too stuck up to invite commuters to stay in their dorm and the Poughkeepsie cabs are too illegitimate to take for more than 10 minutes), students do not care to be your friend.
  • Students say to join clubs. Well, I did … And the meetings were no earlier than 9:15 PM, even intramural sports (very inconvenient). Not to mention, meetings/games last about 15 minutes, making the drive there or the hours you spend waiting there a complete waste.
  • Professors are all about group projects. I understand this is how much of the business world works today, but students are rarely willing to meet any earlier than 10 AM and prefer to meet late at night (again, very inconvenient).
  • Students, besides other commuters, do not understand why you may not be able to afford $12,000 on top of the $28,000 tuition to live two minutes from campus rather than 20. They do not understand why mommy and daddy would not pay the extra "pocket change."
  • Parking is horrible, especially with an entire section being removed for the completely unnecessary "underpass." Security gives anyone and everyone a parking permit, even students who live in the dorms that have a path directly to the "underpass." The two commuter lots are the gym parking lot and the lot across the street from campus. Well, students drive their cars to the gym (hmmm…) and class from across the street or across campus (across is not that far), taking up many of the spots that people who cannot walk to class because they live 20 minutes away (driving distance).
  • Aside from those commuter-related comments, I am in my third year and only now am getting professors that have legitimate knowledge and experience in the best-of-the-best of their fields of work. The first two years were full of adjuncts, AKA your everyday man/woman with a job who needs some extra cash and feels like teaching from a textbook is all college classes are. I could have gone to community college for no cost at all and gotten better professors; unfortunately, the Marist name looks better on a resume. Now my professors have plenty of experience in their fields, but because they have so much experience, they believe it is their way or the highway; if you do not follow their exact rules, you will fail in life. I am studying Creative Advertising; my ideas, which are found creative by the many people I ask, are immediately replaced by the ideas a professor has from her experience. What happened to the "creative" part?

    The students, overall, are all the same: snooty (even if they swear they are not), self-absorbed, rude.

    Fashion students have many times looked disgustingly at my more "rock alternative" attire. If you try to be different, students are simply disgusted, confused.

    The only thing I'll give Marist is that it is absolutely beautiful. It stole my heart with its looks, meanwhile I already live here. Unfortunately, that is one of the only places you see those high tuition dollars going to.

    I come home in a bad mood everyday from this school. The professors, the students,
