Syracuse was not the right fit for me. The rural location and depressing weather combined with a self centered student population led me to transfer to another school. The academics were hit or miss - some professors were good but most were uncaring and unwelcoming. Large lecture halls didn't help the situation. Sports teams are really big. There is a great deal of school spirit around the football and basketball teams. I met quite a few jocks on campus and they were very full of themselves. It appeared as though they get special treatment.

I transferred after 2 years and I was much happier at a different school.
