Its a decent school for kids that are fairly intelligent, do not want to do that much work, and would rather get drunk than learn. I see no passion for learning here, and I would rather be at a school where the focal point of conversation (for the entire week until the next weekend) is not the amount of bong hits it took one to incapacitate one's self the previous evening. There's a time and place to get real messed up, fine, but God at least have some passion about something. We are getting run through the mill like at any good state university. The faculty are intelligent and established. Some teachers can lean on the arrogant side, but hell, I would too if I saw the student population here. It is just funny to me, because everyone seemed to be so proud of my going here back home. To me that is just classic Penn State hype. Maybe (if I don't transfer out) when I get to my upper level classes I will like it better. The business school here is top notch, especially in the concentrations of Supply Chain & Information Systems, and Finance. I am currently Dual majoring in Supply Chain & Information Systems and International Business, and concentrating on a minor in Chemistry and Military History (the latter is only because I am also in ROTC). I guess I tend to like the out of state kids better, because they appear more intelligent. Maybe I am too much of an elitist.
