Why does it feel like SLU isn't that great anymore in general?
Currently 2nd yr and hearing so many rumors about the administration. Plus having my campus in bakakeng makes it feel like we're an afterthought. The additional transportation costs compared to the main campus where I can just walk, gates ain't even working but I feel like it's in the tf, additional costs that most probably goes to the main campus coz there's barely any facilities in maryheights (pe uniform, finance office, talged, ROOFED gyms, etc are in the main campus mostly), long waiting lines for transpo, using the avr for recollections and it gets loud plus more students in line when going home like why can't they give a space in the main campus?? Most of the time we can't even participate in watching the festivities in the main campus, the wifi sucks but yea add it to our tf and not give us the password even most gen ed profs don't know the password, had to even get our books near the print shop in the main campus, parking space is a problem coz u can't even park anywhere nearby coz it's a literal neighborhood (idk if u can reserve or not tho, still getting my license), atleast in the main campus u can go to town when u have a long break but in bakakeng u either pay again for transpo or go the the same places again, experienced 7:30 classes everyday for my first sem 1st yr and transpo was hard when the earliest jeep in my place was 7 ur lucky to get 6 30, and our nstp where we can't get enough blood donors inside and outside campus coz there's literally no one outside to ask and why tf would u make it mandatory like I would've gladly joined the other nstp classes on their gardening but that aint an option unfortunately, and so much more.
The only good thing abt this uni are the staffs and profs, im quite lucky when getting teachers coz they're always kind and i never rlly had a terror prof who was the reason i get a bad grade, I only ever rlly get a bad grade coz of myself or bad timing, sometimes coz of grp works, but never rlly a terror prof. So yea that's my rant, can't wait to graduate and enroll on a bridging program coz I ain't gonna take the QE and graduate as a BSA in the uni I absolutely hate and pass the CPA just for it to be added to their rates, yea no way. I really thought I'd atleast like this uni since i was quite neutral abt it when i enrolled but now i just wanna get over it. But yea love the profs and staffs, hate the administration and wtv tf they're doing to ruin slu's reputation.
