In all honesty, coming to this school was THE WORST DECISION OF MY LIFE. This school is very deceiving. Based on appearances of the campus and the students any normal person would think this is a pretty nice, enjoyable school, but never judge a book by its cover. Other than the up keep of the campus, the dorms are just average. All freshman are forced to live in Davis and Dickenson Hall, which is a terrible fuckin idea based on the layout and floor plans of these two dorms. Both dorms are divided into towers and sections, so therefore there are about 6 rooms clustered in each area. The layout is terrible for social networking and trying to get to know people. What this school should do is house all freshman in Courtney Hall, which has long halls enabling social networking to be a lot easier.

Majority of the male student body are all CJ majors as well as being your typical douche bag jocks and arrogant pricks. There are the occasional friendly hipsters which can be a nice change. The girls are all pretty average, unfriendly, and play hard to get and as usual ignore all guys their own age and go for the upperclass athletes.

Faculty is very friendly but for the most part useless and unhelpful, with the exception of a few.

Going to this school is like going to a military school. Quiet hours start at 9 PM and if you so much as laughing to loud, you will be written up by one of the many ISO's (On Capus Security) who get pleasure off getting innocent students in trouble. If you get with or smoking weed, there is a one strike policy, and you will immediately be kicked out of school.

The town of Westfield is an absolute shit hole with a homeless problem and high poverty rates. There are a ton of weird ass people in this town as well who all seem like crackheads. The off campus dorms (Landstowne Place) is convientely located right next to the homeless shelters and i've heard plenty of stories or students being harassed by them at night. I've also heard several stories of students being jumped by townies and even getting knives and guns pulled on them.

For any student thinking about potentially coming to this school, i'd think otherwise unless you are a Criminal Justice major.
