Academically, Rider's pretty good. I've been really satisfied with most of my classes and professors. It's just challenging enough and I've maintained pretty good grades. Socially, though, this place sucks. The girls are really cliquey once they make friends and the guys can be real jerks. It's a huge suitcase school, so there's not really much to do on weekends. The staff in the dining hall and just about every where else, with the exception of 3 people at Starbucks, are rude and just plain unfriendly. After about the first week of school, people are settled into their clique of friends, so it makes it difficult to make friends after that. I'd say, if you're close enough to commute, do that instead of live here. It's honestly been a waste of my money and I'm going to commute next semester.
