He cares more about Friendliness than the average student.

Major: Electrical Engineering (This Major's Salary over time)
I'll be frank as possible.

I've been at RIT for 6 years, living on campus.

I'm an electrical engineer.

Students: Some are great, but they are rare gems. A majority of them are a bunch of self righteous pricks. They think they're great, and the smartest thing on the planet.

Here's a tip guys, once you start working you don't know squat.

I'd beg people to hang out with me, and they'd prefer world of warcraft.

We're rated below the US Naval Academy on parties for a reason.

The only cool people work at food service at RIT, trust me.

Professors: They will help you - as long as you are extraordinarily specific with your question, and basically already solved the problem. The physics professors are the worst. Trayling and Jodein are your only hope.

Administration: Only cares about money. No matter the issue. It's applicable to every case. RIT does not care about you.

Notes?: Do not go here for friends. I partied on other campuses, and had more friends at schools 40 mils away than at RIT. Do not expect your name to be known unless you're a 5.0 student.

Do not expect studying hard to pay off. Cheating is rewarded more than working hard. They want right answers, not wisdom or general knowledge.

Take classes in liberal arts for a breath of fresh air - less snottyness, no more condescending atmosphere.

DO NOT COME HERE EVER. I wanted to transfer, but by the time I wised up, not enough of my credits would transfer over to other schools.
