I am very dissapointed I decided to go to Bloomsburg. I truly am baffled on how uniform the students here are. There are lots New Jersey students and students from the Philadelphia area(I'm from Philly). The majority of the students love Ed Hardy and Tap Out, although that's irrelevant, they all believe they are the cream at the top. Along with this arrogance, I'm amazed on how little my classmates know. I don't feel challenged by my teachers or my classmates. The majority of the students here are in their own clique and will think nothing of you if you aren't part of their group.
I have had numerous professors tell me in my classes that
even I can be successful in my major even though I go to Bloomsburg.
I was appalled they would say that, and honestly just helped me make up my mind that I don't belong here.

The cops here are out of their minds. They got a taste of some money a few years ago and now try to stop anyone in order to help fuel their new line of brand new cars and SUVs. I feel safe in the town but not from the cops. Parties are ok…mostly frats or little get to-gethers because everyone is afraid the cops will come to the parties.
In the end I feel like Bloomsburg is taking my college experience away from me, and I will not be returning next year, or even next semester. Just my story and a few words of advice.
