| A student who takes advantage of what's offered there will be very well prepared with a B.Arch from SC. Diversity is very high, but unfortunately there is a lot of segregation. This isn't enforced by anything, but many people tend to stick within their racial group. This makes sense to me when it comes to international students because of the language issue, but I can't figure it out for the rest. Diversity as far as sexual orientation is a non-issue, especially in architecture. People of all orientations do just fine. Housing was super cramped when I was there, but they did open up a couple of new residence halls since then, and now guarantee housing through at least your sophomore year (when I was there it was only guaranteed for freshmen). Food it fine, but any campus food gets old after you're there a while. There's a great cafe just a couple of buildings over from the architecture building. The architecture facilities recently received a big upgrade with the addition of a third floor onto Watt Hall as well. |
