The University of Florida

If you are looking to grow as a person at this university, look elsewhere. The hype of their academics stems from the hype of their football team and as someone who doesn't give a shit about football, its annoying to hear about Tim Tebow all the fucking time. Gainesville offers no diversity and is full of the reddest rednecks, the university is full of students that are closeminded who haven't set foot outside of Florida and only need to be a part of the Gator Nation to satisfy their pitiful fantasies. Maybe you can find a few down to earth people, but its hard, I tried. Don't get caught up in rankings, go to a school that you will enjoy and find the most inner fulfillment out of, not because it looks good or because the gators are number one. If that is your aim, then you can pretty much aim for settling down after UF and leading a boring,predictable life. Diversity does not fully encompass the number of minorities on campus. It should be more than that, more kids from different backgrounds and philosophies that you can talk to and relate to. A florida native is a florida native- it doesn't matter if he/she is rainbow colored, you will encounter the same childish attitudes everywhere as you did in high school; this is the 13th grade with no relation to a global perspective whatsoever. I hated every minute of my time here and its been a waste of my life.
