Overall my feelings are pretty negative about this school. Most people do not live near or on campus. I commuted my first year and it has hell coming here and having to wait 2 hours for your next class to start. So i decided that I should try living on campus. At first I got in to one of the east campus halls-do not live in them! They are completely disgusting and it is mostly just freshman there and it is very loud at night. So I transferred to south campus housing which is wayyy worth your money! Although I love living in the city I feel that it is impossible to meet people at this school. Im a fairly sociable person and I hardly feel like I know anybody! Everyone shuts themselves off from the world and everyone keeps their doors shut. I feel that its hard to find people that relate to me i guess. The school and the education isnt bad..but its kind of ghetto here and the buildings are crummy. I would say that it would be ok if you had friends going here with you and you lived in an apartment but other than that its very hard to have a real social life.
