Please
do not ever live in University Housing, you are parying
top dollar to live in a slum. This University is
abeaurocracy that is incapable of solving minor problems. For example,
if you have a problem with your bill, you end
up having to talk to five or six different departments
who give you different answers for everything. There is absolutely
no student agency. If a mentor, professor, or anyone else
with authority accuses you of anything, the judicial system is
not set up to work fairly.
A LOT of the
teachers speak horrible english. The math department is absolutely terrible,
and a lot of the buildings are negligably accessible for
differently-abled persons.
I will say that that they have an
excellent Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities, and an excellent
office for LBGTA Affairs.
East Lansing is a very anti-student
location. It has a habit of passing laws that negatively
affect students, and the student populations. Most recently, the city
attempted to displace hundreds of students by passing a law
that would allow the razing of several frat houses, and
students housing situations. They also passed a law that considered
a “riot” to be a gathering of five or more
people. The police often have a tendency to throw tear
gas into peaceful crowds of students.
