Lets get this right off the bat, if you can pay the tuition they will accept you do not get in on merit. This leads to a student body that is filled with either pretentious long island snobs who are forced to go to college by their parents, or inner city under achievers. I commuted to post for all of the years I attended and let me tell you there is a dividing wall between commuters who go to class and go home and the cliquish dormers. I had a network of friends outside of C.W. Post so I spent a large part of my social life outside the campus. I am a long islander and noticed that a lot of out of state kids from the tri-state have their own cliques. My only friend from C.W. Post was a film student from Vermont. I remember telling me I am not like the other stuck up long islanders at the school.

Let me tell you about acts of bullying that have been done to me while at C.W. Post:

I took a statistics class for business in my sophomore year and the asian professor would idiotically split the class into two rooms for tests. The professor would go back and forth to each room. One particular jock-type student came next to my seat and asked for some of the answers while the professor was in the other room. I actually wanted to learn something in this class and this particular student didn't take a liking to that nor the class.

I took an advertising class for my marketing requirements. The first day the teacher laid out the syllabus and the class looked to be sort of fun. We had to help a local Long Island bank in its marketing efforts as a project for the class. This soon took over the entire class and the project required us to do nothing. The professor pick this one frat daddy type student to lead the project and one day I almost got into altercation with this student because I spoke my mind and actually said the class was BS.

Me and my friend from Vermont would go to Aqua Lounge a hole in the wall bar known for underage drinking in nearby Glen Cove. One particular night we where there when the Post lacrosse team was there. I was with my friend from Vermont and his friends who were cinema majors and didn't have the white baseball cap meathead look to them. One of the jocks called my friend a F!ggot. They college is like high school with ash trays and this instance it was.

Like I said the school is very cliquish and every one knows each other if they dorm. I found that the down to earth people were the people from out of state. I felt sorry for these students on the weekend the campus is a ghost town and some live to far to warrant going home for the weekend.

For the most part I was antisocial to a lot of the dormers and can you blame me? I was in school when Virginia Tech happened and one of the student who was friends the test bully gave a dirty glare as if to imply I would do something like that. A lot of people on this campus have big egos.

As far as the education goes the accounting school is good and the job placement office was better and had a lot of internships prior to the financial collapse. The
