Ok lets be honest here. The place is a shithole, in the middle of nowhere. The buildings are circa 1804 and for the most part havent been kept up since then. The electrical is so bad throughout the ENTIRE campus that I'm surprised the place hasnt burned down by now. Internet access is limited to the computer labs, so if you were to lock 4 doors on the campus, you could basically take the whole place back to 1985 in technology standards.

The ONLY shining fact of this school is that they have awesome professors and staff working there. Which is bad considering that as hard as those people work for their students, they deserve to work at a place that doesnt look like downtown Berlin after germany surrendered.

Its right on the border and for any kind of recreation, you'll be hopping over the border to the nearest town as often as you can. Other than that, the most common responce given to - what is there to do in this town? is "Hang out in your dorm room" or "Hang out in someone elses dorm room".

The student center is now under construction, but up until they started building this new one, what served as the student union was basically a house the size of your average living room. More of a Cantina, or as some would refer to it a "Sardina" since you couldnt pack more than 10 people in their comfortably.

This school seriously needs to get professional help for facilities management, and pull themselves out of the stone age of academic housing.
