He cares more about Social Life than the average student.
Date: Mar 05 2009
Major: English (This Major's Salary over time)
I'm only in my second year here and already my spirit is broken. The weather is fairly miserable, the social "life" is non existent (unless you consider covering your ears to block out the shitty music while trying to rub past sweaty drunken idiots in a dingy basement a good time), there's nothing within walking distance or even within a reasonable driving distance that is fun to do, everyone is miserable but no one wants to admit it, and the academics are brutal. 8-10 week terms is NOT something good, trust me. Everything here is grade-driven, not based on whether or not you're actually learning and understanding the material. The profs aren't too horrible, at least if you check the Student Assembly website to avoid the crazies (which can't always be done, depending on your major).

In short, read the other negative reviews. That guy that warns about his experience reflecting yours? Yeah, it will, trust me.
