maybe i made a mistake? the misfortunes of feeling like nobody is starting to kill me. rutgers' professors and classes are probably the greatest experiences in a classroom i have ever had. i love that part of this school. the integrity of the schools academic standing is incomparable to anything i have witnessed in my life. i am sure there are those who disagree with me, probably anyone going to an ivy league school. but the fact is that Rutgers college has been asked to be in the ivy league many times. the problem is that for rutgers college to be in the ivy league it would have to sever all ties with the other colleges(livingston, cook, douglass, busch) so they turn it down. the problem here for me seems to be the closed minds of the people in my building. they are social, but to an extent. it bothers me that i can walk to class about 3 times a day and not have one person "go out of their way" and say hi to me. its just rather depressing. i come from cabrini college, the small liberal arts college that has about 700 students on campus. you know everyone, everyone knows you. people say hi whether they do know you or not. maybe i never wanted the big school experience. coming from palmyra and cabrini, i think that the only thing i can handle is the small school experience. maybe i insulted the academic program of cabrini. but its worth it considering i know that if i was still there, i would probly at least have had a smile on my face once in awhile. should i go back? this question is running through my head many times a day. right now if u want to know. rutgers=eh...
