Ok Bradley is what you make out of it simply put. If you want to further your education while having a good social life you can, but if you want to lock yourself in your room and study all day and night you can. Contrary to what people say, I think the administration is good but that is because I am in student government and meet with them all the time. The food is decent right now but its getting a lot better soon with the major renovation and expansion of one of the main dining halls which should be done by the beginning of spring semester 2011. The dorms are not all great but they are getting better with the major renovations they are getting this summer aka summer 2011. The campus is growing with new building and new expansions that are really going to make Bradley look really nice in the next couple of years. While greek life makes up 30% of the students on campus, there is a lot of extra curricular activities to do on campus if you aren't greek. That being said the greeks are the ones that throw the parties. Also contrary to common believe, the police on campus don't really care about drinking as much as people say, you will be ok as long as you are not running around screaming you head off about how drunk you are, and also walk in group when you leave parties. The good thing about safety is that most of the fraternities have risk manager who job is to find sober people to walk you back so you aren't alone. There are some things with security on campus that can be changed, and since the administration just finished a major multi million dollar security assessment, changes to the safety of the campus will be better soon. Also the student government that I am a part of has been working hard and has passed many resolutions this year that have been sent to the administration, and since the administration loves the student government our changes are being made as soon as possible. Lastly you will love President Glasser, she is everywhere and enjoys her students enough that she allows them to come to her office once a month to talk about whatever you want, I don't know many schools that the president does that. There is a lot of changes happening on campus that people don't know about because they aren't involved, so if you want to know the real deal about Bradley email me at my personal email address , and I will be glad to answer all your questions because I am involved on campus and I know all the changes that are happening.

questionHi! my name is marco zuniga i am 17 years old, i live in honduras and i am currently a senior, basically my question is that is Bradley a serious college or is it more a party university? I am not familiar with the greek system so I really dont know what to think of it, also i am interested in International studies (if you could add something about that it would be awesome) and hows security I know you mentioned it but I mean like off campus? thankyou have a good day!
responseUnfortunately, while president Glasser allows students to come into her office, she does little to follow up on the matters discussed.
