Elon University

Clearly the person below me who wrote a positive comment about Elon is in the small minority. I feel like whoever she is, she simply is embarrassed about attending this school and feels the need to be defensive about it on this website. Since I personally don't give a crap what people think about me and have long since admitted I made a horrible choice of where to attend college, I feel the need to address these statements made that are simply not true.

Campus dining is NOT good here. Just because some other schools are worse does not mean that ours is good. "Good" is a relative term. I don't know what the previous poster is on, but most of the dining halls always run out of food and are only open at inconvenient times. All that is available past 8 pm is pizza and other unhealthy garbage. As far as taste goes, the food is okay, sometimes. As far as meal plans go, one swipe is the equivalent of $15, or something absurd. If you get a side someplace, or even just a cookie or piece of fruit, this is one whole swipe. $15 dollars for a banana? Anyone who says that this is a decent price, such as the girl below, is just dumb.

This brings me to my next point, which is probably much more important than the food: people at Elon are not intelligent. I have met more stupid people here than at any other school I have visited or considered. It was my mistake for touring Elon in the summer when no students were around. Oops. Hardly ever will you meet someone who you can actually have an intelligent and constructive conversation with about anything important in the world. All people care about here is partying, which at Elon consists of drinking in your room or at your friend's place. Forget real parties that are actually fun; you won't find them here.

I don't even remember what the rest of the previous post is about, nor do I care much, so I can't respond to it. All I am going to say is that Elon is a horrible school for anyone intelligent and open minded. Even for many dumb people, it sucks, because it is probably the most boring and uneventful campus in America. I am done wasting my time here writing about how much Elon sucks when 95% of people already know that. I feel bad for the other 5% who are too ignorant to see how hopeless they really are.
