Major: Philosophy (This Major's Salary over time)
This is a Greek-dominated institution overrun with socialites including spoiled rich girls and jock-mentality men. The professors and academics are excellent, but many of the students at least appear moronic and are grade obsessed to the point of missing the depth behind lectures. They'd rather memorize information than learn, often cramming the night before major exams and drinking heavily the weekend before.

There appears to be an obsession with alcohol and binge drinking on campus which is not limited to the low achievers. Intelligent students often jokingly recount being arrested or throwing up the night before and go from valedictorians in high school to being perfectly content with 3.0 GPA's.

Don't attend this university. The school is too small, allowing Greek students and cliques to dominate everything to the appoint of annoyance and constant frustration. The big fish in a little pond mentally runs rampant.

If you're the brilliant type, go to Carnegie Mellon, Georgetown, or Notre Dame. Wake Forest is a black hole for deep thinkers and nonconformists.
