Health & Safety at University of Miami

A-

Nocturnal Situations

I feel safe during the daytime, but at night I feel a little worried. Thus I don't take night school. The darkness makes it difficult both to see and I worry about the people at night. There are also parties and I'm concerned about the people at that time. Finally, the traffic around school picks up with the evening rush from work, and as a bicycle commuter, I worry about roadside dangers.

Academics at University of Miami

A

Working Around Restrictions

I was able to choose all the classes I wanted, despite the Orientation rush. However, I'm upset that I was unable to take more classes. The 6-class restriction has limited my decisions and stretched out my workload.

Most professors in the humanities department are knowledgable and open to questions. However, my Macroeconomics teacher is a book-for-book instructor, and I believe I could learn just as much without her presence interferring. I hate it.

Local Atmosphere at University of Miami

A+

Sunshine Days

I like Miami and its diversity from all over the world. I love the beaches. The city is pretty at night, but I'm not one for the local entertainment within it. It's a place of migration; so many new faces visiting and interesting people to meet. Everyday is a unique opportunity. The weather is perfect; it's always nice and warm despite the seasons and that alllows me to play watersports even in the winter.

Miami is a big city, and there are a ton of stores and malls. My schedule allows me to go out and shop (but my wallet doesn't.)Thus, I'm more of an 'emergency shopping' person. Books, food, etc. I'm an academic student so I tend to avoid the nightclubs and drinking, ergo my life is pretty safe.
