I came to UK as a transfer from a Big Ten school (where you can find an ex-UK coach, hint-hint) because they offered to pay me to.

Honestly, Lexington is bland. No culture, good-ol'-boy network amalgamation of strip malls. Southern snootiness, Frat punks run the place in fashions straight from a mid-90s teen movie and the girls lack any personality. Everyone is good looking on the outside, soulless and bland on the inside. If you live for watching a bunch of kids who aren't even from your state throw a ball through a hoop, UK might be your thing, though.

The faculty are pathetic. Rude, condescending, often reminiscent of the students. It must be a Lexington thing. Boredom does drive some to anger, after all.

Don't bother with the College of Comm. or Gatton, the administration could give two shits about you getting into the classes you need or graduating on time.

UK spends most of its massive budget on "See Blue" or, as I like to call them "See how to embrace mediocrity" campaigns and novelty courses where freshmen and "honors" students map out where celebrities would hang out if they were to spend a weekend in the vacuous, racist, hate-filled redneck cesspool of Lexington.
