Lets Talk About College.

February 20, 2007 · Filed Under College Life 101 

I feel like I haven’t spoken enough about college life and experience so here are some things about it. This is going to be specially for all incoming freshmens to R.I.T. (Rochester Institute of Technology). The first quarter you are here, whenever you see the sun, go out and walk. It will be one of the fewest times you will ever see it. Stop complaining about it being cold, you will learn what cold is in February. During Fall quarter it will rain, a lot, every day almost. During Winter, it will snow, a lot, every day almost. Weather is crazy up here, the temperature drops 5 degrees out of no where. Registering for classes will become the hardest thing for you as a freshmen, unless you wake up at 5:50am or stay up until that time and you get lucky enough to be able to access the system.

Don’t be a loser, meet people, talk to them, party. If you think playing video games all day in your room is awesome then you are probably going to the right school because thats about what 60% of the students do here. Depending on your major, you might have a better schedule than others, art students usually have a day off. I have been trying that and I have successfully failed, twice. If you are going to take Calculus classes, chances are you can not have friday’s off because there is always a Calculus class on Friday’s.

Living at RIT could be a bit comfortable, depending on your needs and where they put you. Don’t believe that all dorms are the same size, because they are not! Some of them are a few inches bigger or smaller and it does make a difference. Try to get to know your roomate, most likely you wont like him much because thats just how it go’s. If you have a car, you are a very lucky person, if you don’t then try meeting people with car. You will need them. Food is ok, you will learn the meaning of Gracie’s, at one point you will love it, later on you will hate it, and then it depends of the person you might think it’s “ok” or that it is the worse ever. Learn at what time each places close, because if you are hungry after 12am, your best friend will be a vending machine. Delivery sucks in Rochester, everything closes early, learn there timing also.

Thats about it for now,
Yasser
