After a semester at Auburn, I feel like I have been lied to from day one. During my visit to campus, I was told about all the great things about Auburn including national rankings in certain areas by their recruiters. An example would be that I was told Auburn ranked as one of the top "Most Wired Schools" in the nation by Yahoo. Since, I have discovered that this was simply false (Check out the rankings for yourself). Actually, Auburn ranks very low compared to what I was told. The students here are extremely backward, as represented by two white fraternities that conducted mock lynchings of African-Americans in the fall of 2001. This incident made national news and can be explored further at The Chronicle of Education website at Because of Auburn's reputation, I have had people try to label me as a racist for attending this university. I made a poor choice by attending Auburn and will have to live with it for the rest of my life.
