First and foremost, try your hardest NOT TO LIVE ON CAMPUS. One, room and board costs more than the tuition itself.

Two, the food and dorms are not even close to worth what you pay for.

The food is mediocore and cheap. One night I went to one of the dining halls, and all they had was cereal.

The dorm life is a joke. Everyone is still treated like children who are supervised by RAs. A good portion of the fees that you are required to pay go to fund the RAs programs that nobody goes to, unless its just for the food.

I'm not saying the programs are a bad idea, they're just marketed to the wrong group of people. In essence, most of that money goes to waste, or just pays for additional food.

Furthermore, a good portion of the RAs don't do they're job very well. As I write this, I am down in the computer lab, because my dorm and entire floor reeks of pot. After telling the RAs, they didn't do anything.

Also, a large portion of the time, you can hear people talking and yelling non-stop due to thin walls, etc

IN THE END, DO NOT LIVE ON CAMPUS. This was the biggest waste of money yet

I cannot speak for other departments on campus, but I can say the Math department is full of a wonderful, caring set of people. The Computer Science department could use some work, some of the professors appear to be mean and unhelpful.

The campus is pretty ugly, say compared to my old school, the University of Maine. It is sort of just stuck and surrounded by a couple of busy New Britain roads. The architecture is modern and cold.

I hope in writing this I have sparred several students the ridiculousness of living on campus.
