Have Fun Now Kids, the Real World Is Coming!

Wow, so many A's here for FIT. Well congrats FIT, you brainwashed a generation and bankrupted their parents.

So heres the scoop. I'm a recent grad at FIT and I will list the biggest problems that students will face after graduation from this school:

- If youre in business, leave this school. Any employer who sees "Fashion" Institute of Technology will dunk your resume, no matter how good it is in the shredder. I am not the only one that has noticed this, plenty of former classmates I know are going through this right now.

- Changing majors? They will throw you under the bus if you even have the thought of doing so. Want to take that photo class as an elective? Forget about it

- Economic reality: A lot of professors here, especially in business fumigate the classroom with this air of "what I do here will prepare you for the outside world". I'm out here now, so are 10 others I know and still talk to. The professors, at least in the core classes are 10 years behind the rest of the world. Marketing majors should consider taking design courses (cause theyre axing graphic designers and marketing gotta pick up the slack) but of course, if you decide to take a design supplement course, they shut the door hard in your face.

Basically, theres a lot of red tape in this school that will hinder any chances of you achieving anything in the future except flipping burgers. If you are here at FIT, I suggest you write an apology letter to your parents of whats to come.
