Both of my parents graduated from Valpo, so naturally I looked into it looking for colleges. I took a campus tour and the campus was very nice aside from the freshman dorms, but what freshman dorms aren't bad? I decided to go because the people looked nice. Upon going and experiencing everything a few things I learned are:

1. If you want a social life, you have to join a fraternity/sorority

2. The work isn't hard, but the grading is a little ridiculous

3. DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT go here if you expected anything social on the weekends, the campus is empty on the weekends

4. A lot of the classes you are required to take do not make a whole lot of sense compared to other colleges

I am not going back next year because of all of these things.
