Its
funny that this survey ask what type of student I
was, but I put “not very bright” because this school
makes me feel like that quite a bit. That's the
way I feel in comparison to some of the students
here. If I were at home in Chicago in my
neighborhood I would have probably been nicer to myself. There
are so many smart people here that it's hard to
see yourself as bright even if you really are. Especially
considering how well I did in high school. I went
from 3.7 in HS to 2.7 in college. Its quite
depressing sometimes, but Im a senior now and I made
it through. I haven't achieve as much as I wish
I would have, but I made it this far and
Im still proud of myself for sticking it out and
not giving up. That's the spirit you have to have
when you come here. When its all over you appreciate
your education so much more than you would have if
it was easy.Ok now lets talk about campus life...My experience
represents that of a minority student or African-American student FYI.
The school is quite segregated. Its not segregated legally or
anything, its just the environment and people segregate themselves due
to...who knows what exactly. No one will openly admit to
the segregation personally, it just kind of lingers just below
the surface. I have very few friends that are not
black. However, this may also be a benefit bc the
people you are friends with are pretty cool and fun
to hang out with. Sometimes I feel like the school
is black college, but technically we represent less than 5%
of over 40,000 students. This is just because blacks only
attend black evens and whites attend white events and so
on. No that there are not occasional exceptions, but im
quite sure statistics would strongly uphold that statement. This school
can be sort of cold hearted and has it's issues,
but every school does. I would not have chosen another
school bc this is a great university and it looks
good on your records. I would recommend it to any
one just be aware that their are issues that need
to be resolved on this campus. Staying away from it
wont solve the problem, so come and get an excellent
education and you all should seek to change things when
you arrive. I wish I would have, but it took
me too long to realize what was really going on
around me. Good Luck on what ever ur final decision
is :-)
