Emerson tradition is teaching from knowledge and experience. Though this
is a plus, almost none of the faculty members have
a degree in education which means they are TERRIBLE teachers/instructors.
I'm a first semester junior and I plan on transferring
out. In all the courses that I have taken here,
I have only liked 3 of the professors. The classes
are very small, which is great for learning but its
awful because of how hard it is to get in
them. The administration is very poor as well. Much of
the money is spent on pointless things. While I have
been here, they redid the dining hall and the gym.
Both were absolutely unnecessary yet the school insists on raising
tuition every year. They have a really nice gym they
advertise but what they leave out is that its only
for athletes — everyone else has to use the crappier
one. Majority of the student body is composed of pretentious,
close-minded, narcissistic people. Yes — they are very liberal which
makes it seem like they are open minded but most
don't know what they are talking about and refuse to
hear any thought that isn't their own. It is so
intense that I refused to take my ethics course here
or any other philosophy course, despite having a deep interest
in the subject. Most of the work assigned is just
busy work that you don't get anything out of. It
is extremely easy to get good grades as long as
you hand in all your work. The set of Will
& Grace is in the library — you're not allowed
to use it though, it is only there to take
up space so they can charge students even more to
live in such an expensive part of town. The internet
is terrible — I get kicked off randomly all the
time, which makes doing homework really difficult and frustrating. I
came to Emerson to study writing and rather than feeling
inspired, I find myself absolutely hating every second of it.
Basically, Emerson overcharges for a less than satisfactory education/experience. Almost
everyone that I know has transferred or thought of it.
Just hope that your family is super rich like everyone
else here so that you can actually afford to go
without being in debt for the rest of your life!
