Well let me just start by giving out a little backround info about my collegiate experience.  I started down at Champaign, hated it for the overbearing fraternity cult that pervaded the entire campus.  So, being so dissulluioned, I put my hopes on Loyola, where I was put into a transfer dorm, and virtually all the students came in with some type of baggage, mostly drunks and drug users.  To make a long story short, I was kicked out of Loyola for being present in a dorm room while cocaine was being used, abeit I had no intentions of using the drug.  At any rate, I went to Depaul and chose not to live in a dorm, becuase only freshman can live in dorms, and I also thought I was getting to old for that sort of thing.  This had grave consequences.  At first I didnt care, I was just happy to be in school, and then, after a couple of quarters, I started to really feel alienated.  I only truly met two friends, both at the gym, and I to this day maintain that it is very difficult to make friends on the campus if your a transfer student.  I think its laughable how depaul advertises itself as being the most diverse student body in the country.  Im actually laughing out loud.  Most everyone is white, and the younger people are the more close-minded.  I actually had a conversation about this with one of my class mates, that they should separate schools bewtween fresh/soph jun/sen becuase there is such an enormous difference in the maturity level from those two groups.  At any rate, I can speak for living on three campuses, if your not white, consider going somewhere else.  After I went to Depaul I went through a damn near psychotic identity crisis becuase Im of mixed race.  (German/Middle-eastern) Although my looks are racially ambiguous, I dont look middle eatern or white, I have olive skin and even that was enough to feel socially estranged.  This is just a warning.  Never have I seen such a white, privegled elite in the context of a college campus in my life.  This is just speaking from an outsiders persective, so those of you that are going to chastise me for saying this can go to hell, becuase Ive lived on three campuses and never have I seen anything like this.  Anyways, 100 and 200 level courses are filled with immature freshman and sophmores, some of which I unfortuanelty have to take, because they didnt transfer over.  300 level courses are amazing.  Small class size, intellectual environment, group discussions with mature adults, etc.  This is about the one part of school that I really enjoy, the 300 level history courses.  Sorry but other than that, the freshman can lick my ass, and this “white is right” mentality can go saunter on down back to Alabama.
