It is just a place of misery. Have you checked out the thread with the many critiques of the university, including mine?

The university suffers from a student population that doesn’t give a ***** about the university because the student population is from Long Island and the leave whenever they can. Why? I don’t know. This does not allow for a campus to grow and, well, become a campus. In other words, complacency flourishes here much more easily than other places. Two, the university suffers from an incompetent staff who do not care about the students. They are there for a job and are not interested in the student experience. These are people from Long Island, what do you expect? Three, the university is terribly underfunded so classes are cut and resources are not available. If you are a transfer student or change your major, life can become harder because the change is not easy.

The campus is also in the worst possible place for a university to be in addition to it being aesthetically very ugly and unappealing. This just adds to an uninspiring experience.
