Fear and Loathing in Tallahassee: +Beautiful girls add to the campus aesthetic, and a lively place to spend divorced mom/dad's money on fraternity/sorority nonsense which dominates some areas. If you've got J-Lo shades and you look like Paris Hilton on crack, then hit the scene, it's all YOU…tanorexic middle-class mediocrity! If you actually study and go to the library, you will find like-minded individuals there, and you will be rewarded with good grades and letters of recommendation. Beware of criminal justice majors who want to play amateur psychologist with YOU! Beware of glory-seeking professors who will sell YOU out! Be true to yourself and have the last laugh! Remember: this is still a backwards-ass racist redneck town filled with sleazy legislators and self-aggrandizing presidential goons. Despite its faults, I love it here; and the gym is ridonculous!

I am trying to get into Business Strategy Ph.D at FSU this fall. After reading your long review as a PHD business student, and all the stuff about Politics, Financial Aid, i was wondering 1.whether you knew anyone who got blown up by politics ( i.e thrown out of PHD program prematurely) 2.Most likely the amount of student loan i incurs ( 20K, 40K, 60K ??) if i decide to pursue Business PHD here 3) and finally how many year for a Ph.D student to finish i.e 5 yrs, 7 yrs, 8 yrs; because on my interview with them last time, i sensed they were not disclosing "Much" about Phd average years. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY appreciate it if i get anyfeed back, cause we most likely chose ONCE to end whatever PHD in lifetime, so we should better do it right.
