Major: Business - Management and Administration (This Major's Salary over time)
I attended UConn for my junior & senior years after my freshman & sophomore years at Bradley University (in Illinois). After UConn, I graduated with a masters from Southern Methodist University (in Texas), so I've seen several colleges. I chose to finish my undergrad degree at UConn because of the quality of the business school and the low cost. I also liked the idea of going to my home state's flagship public school. Overall, I liked UConn a lot. The classes were challenging and I found that most (not all) of the professors were interested in the students. My social life wasn't quite as good at UConn as it was in high school or in my freshman & sophomore years, but at UConn I was studying many hours per week. One disappointment for me was that the administration placed me in an all-freshman dorm for my junior year, and by then I had outgrown much of that freshman behavior. I thought the weather in the fall was beautiful and the weather in the winter/spring was awful. The campus looks much different now than it did 30 years ago - there's a new business building, and the old South Campus dorms are long gone. The State of Connecticut has invested billions of dollars into UConn in the last 15 years and it shows. One result of that is that UConn has become more difficult to get into recently; my SAT scores were in the 67th percentile in the 1980's, but now I would be in the 33rd percentile. I believe UConn's goal is to become a top 10 public university and it appears they're headed in that direction. I'm proud to be a Husky!
