Major: Undecided (This Major's Salary over time)
Upon entering Adelphi my freshman year, I instantly knew this school was not for me. Academically, the work is not too hard and the classes are small. The teachers are great, all very flexible and willing to provide extra help and give you breaks (i had several teaches let me do extra credit when I wasn't supposed to). The social life sucks, with the majority of students from the New York area, the campus becomes a ghost town on weekends. My floor which had about 40 guys living on it, would have only 5-10 students around on the avg weekend. Their are parties on the weekends, if you are down to spend alot of money, and goto bars like the one in "my new f*cking haircut" then Thursday night is perfect for you. All parties that go down are far off campus. The city is close, which I spent alot of time in. But the city isnt close enough where you can just wander to one night without a plan as to what to do. The small campus also feels like high school all over again, with the same stupid gossip that shouldnt go on in college. If your not going to join a frat or a sorority, and you dont plan on going home every weekend. This school is for sure not for you!
