I think Elmira College is a wannabe college - it reminds me of those movie sets where from the front you see the buildings but behind them you see props holding them up.

They have a tremendous hype to get you into the program, but once there it's quickly obvious that their intention is to mold you into President Meier's image of a college student. 

It has a 1950s feel to it.  Going around campus singing songs that were written in the 1940s is not my idea of a modern academic program. 

The academic program is long on basics and short on diversity.  The courses taught here can be found at any mediocre community college. 

I just don't feel as though I'm in college.  It really is more like a summer camp.
