This place is too overrated. Of course, the college administration likes to "tout their own horn" and brag as to how great an education you'll receive if you decide to come here. And, they never forget to mention how the campus is beautifully abound with trees and flowers. In turn, they give a "sugar coated" view of how great this school will be for your son or daughter. They forget to mention everything else. Here's a break down of what you'll expect:

Dorm life: The dorms are literally crap. In some places, there are mold, the windows don't open or close, there is little heat during the winter time. Also, not only are they very tight quarters but the RA's don't do dittily squat if you have a problem like if your roommate is having sex while you're sleeping or if the guy next to you decides to play his drums in the middle of the night (and I've had both things occur to me). As a result, many become insomniacs!

Food: GROSS!!! CAS is so cheap that they serve the same kind of food every single day, which is not even good. I can eat better eating out of a garbage can. The veggies are always soggy, the food on the grill is never well done(one time I had severe food poisoning due to uncooked meat). Plus, the gross food that you wouldn't want to be serving to your dogs is HIGHLY EXPENSIVE. Like, it costs $5 or $6 dollars for a little sandwich that doesn't fill you up. Or, $5 for a smoothie where you can easily get it for $2.00 somewhere else.

Faculty: Some of the faculty are approachable but for the most part, the majority of faculty members are VERY subjective in their grading. Even though you may work your butt off for that evasive "A", you'll end up getting a "B" or "B -" if you're lucky. It is true that many professors have "favorites" and are selective as to what grade they give to whom. Some are even sexist and will only give out "A's" to males.

Social Life: DEAD. There is NOTHING to do here unless you want to get alcohol poisoning and throw up on a weekly basis. Basically, your social life will suffer if you don't join a snotty, expensive sorority or fraternity.

Students: They seem nice and "fluffy" on the outside but they are truly wicked at heart in disguise. Many are mean, broken spirited (probably due to lack of sleep or being depressed from alcohol abuse).
