VI
is the worst school. There is nothing to do unless
you want to go to the horse stables. The current
president is trying to fix everything up, but there is
no money. The school does little in the community so
there is no respect for VI. The entire place ALWAYS
smells like horse dung. The only entertainment is going to
Walmart. There is one under 21 club, but it is
pretty much a bunch of 12 year olds dressing up,
sneaking out, and acting like hoes. There are only two
parking lots, and cars in 'the cage' frequently are robbed.
The 2 security guards are really old, and they frequently
fall asleep during their shifts. Only equine majors get updated
things because that is where the school gets the little
amount of money it has. The equine students are really
rude and condescending.
I went as a photography major, and
the only updated thing on campus was the mac lab.
There is a separate computer lab for photo and graphic
design students so that is where you need to go
for internet.
there are giant rats in the walls
and kitchen. There are also ants in the radiators and
huge nasty caterpillars that are in everything. The bathrooms always
flood to the point in which it drains down to
the floor underneath. The internet always goes down, especially on
weekends. The school has asbestus and mold, and in my
dorm part of the ceiling fell. [They said it was
my fault that it fell, which it couldn't have been
because I cannot reach 16 feet and I was on
the fourth floor of west - which is the top
floor.] The bathroom looked window looked directly into my window
inside my dorm. The steps are very uneven, and they
only have an elevator in intermont dorms. The elevator is
almost always broken.
the kitchen food is never fresh, and
its never open when it needs to be. on weekends,
breakfast closes at 9AM when nobody is awake. The food
is made for old people (which is nasty) that come
to dine in the really outdated dining hall. This is
the only place on campus with air conditioning.
I
was told I would play volleyball but the coach lied
to my face. Instead, they signed a different girl and
they lost every game they played. The basketball teams are
filled with people with below average IQ's, but they run
the school. The basketball games aren't entertaining because the teams
are awful. The golf boys are really terrible people and
the soccer boys are just straight up nasty.
They say
it is a 'dry' campus, but everyone has alcohol unless
your RA doesn't like you. Then the RA's will narc
on you for stupid things like 'walking too loud' or
sneezing and causing a disruption. This school is a party
school for the area.
The school is on probationary accreditation
- which goes to show the teachers are terrible.
There
are only 2 photo teachers, Neil and Jay, who are
actually really good in the field. They are the only
ones that know something about photography. Also, these 2 are
the only ones that will listen if there is a
concern with grades or work.
If you're thinking about going
here run as far and as fast as you possibly
can in the opposite direction. Whatever you do, stay away!
