Alright, let me start with the school in general. SU is expensive, as such, they have a lot of fucking money. They build huge buildings, they have auditoriums with $5000 projectors, lots of fancy expensive stuff. The students are also mostly rich kids, but that doesn't mean they're not nice people. The social life here is amazing. If you're shy and spend all day in your room on the computer you will have a horrible life. If you go outside on a Friday and Saturday night to parties and frat houses, you will have the time of your life. Go look up videos of mayfest on youtube. This year (2009) we had over 3 THOUSAND students flood a public street with beer and loud music at like 1 in the afternoon and we partied all day long. The police didn't give out a single underage drinking ticket, how are you going to arrest 3500 people with 10 officers? We had people on second story roofs with 15ft beer funnels to the people below. It was amazing. This school knows how to fucking party! The city is pretty shitty, but that just makes the school so much more badass. People get mugged, apartments get broken into, shit goes down all the time. Be glad that you live in the real world where crime is everywhere and not coddled up sucking on mommy's tit anymore. The classes, honestly, classes don't mean shit. In high school you need good grades to get into college. In college you need good grades to....wait. Why do you need good grades in college? The fact is, your future employers won't give a shit about your college grades. First of all, as soon as you get your first job that experience and reference will mean far more then your grades or even the school you went to. SU is ranked like 50 or so in the country. Its an average school. There are amazing schools like Yale and there are shitty schools like the community college down the street. Everything else is in the middle. So unless you get into one of the 10 or so "famous" schools, it doesn't matter. You are far better off working on projects outside of class or getting a job or internship or running a fundrasier or something. Grades don't mean shit. Hope that helps you out.
