Advisors Have Your Best Interest at Heart
While I have not officially started classes in my major (Mechanical Engineering), I have already met with my academic advisor and spoken with other various professors in the MechE field regarding my classes. They were all extremely attentive and helped me work out my class schedule for this semester and the semesters to come

No Meal Plan
Dining options are not very good. The dining halls are only open for dinner from 5:30-8:30. Only two are open on Fridays and Saturdays. Although the meals themselves are good and accommodate nearly every dining style, students have to pay by meal, which costs about $8. I suppose students have the option to save money by cooking for themselves but when in a time crunch, its not very convenient.

Self-Control
For the most part, students exercise a good degree of intelligence when it comes to drugs and alcohol. There are usually about 3-4 episodes a year where freshmen have to get their stomaches pumped. Some of the students smoke. However, most don't let it interfere with their daily lives. Students still perform well in class and extra-curriculars.
